kybearfuzz: (Legion Flight Ring)
[personal profile] kybearfuzz
I've spent several weeks putting together my Halloween costume this year. My folks never really had the money to spend on costumes, so we kids always had to be somewhat inventive. One of the perks of being an adult is that I can spend a little money, but still like to put my costume together myself for the most part.

I wont lie, I love how this one turned out. I did one last "dress rehearsal" of my costume to make sure there were no snags to fix. I took some photos and couldn't decide which I liked more. You can tell me which you think is the best.



STAR BOY

(click the name above if you have no idea who this is...)

I never thought I would ever wear spandex. Thank heavens black is slimming!

[livejournal.com profile] bestbear_icanbe, you can borrow the costume if you want ;)

You can give those boots back to Nancy Sinatra when you're done:)

LOL.. they're made for walking, but they're also about a size too big :)

I was going to say that it was cool, but I think "fab" is more appropriate.

OMG, that is so fucking FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABULOUS!!!!!!!

The knock at the door is me coming to borrow that work of art -- complete with the LSH flight ring (and you thought I wouldn't notice!).

Heh! I thought you probably would like this. I actually decided to dress as Star Boy because I got the Flight Ring at my comic book shop for buying the new Legion Lost title. I admit, I was more than a bit nervous about the tights thing.

I mean, there aren't a lot of bearded heroes out there! :)

Sad, but true. And now you have something to wear at next year's convention!

This must have been your back-up costume if Star Boy hadn't worked out:

Oh, if only I can THAT kind of body. :)

We'll see. Star Boy is a bit obscure if you're not a comic book fan. :)

I am impressed!!

While Star Boy may be able to increase the mass of any given object, I'd be willing to bet more than a few people would be willing to be pulled into your gravitational field.

You don't need to wear black to look slim; it just makes you look slimmer...damn you.

That's pretty awesome! And it's fitting that you picked the hottest Legionnaire to dress as. ;)

I LOVE that Star Boy costume!!

Should we start calling you Thom Kallor? ;)

The flight ring is a nice touch!!

For the record, I, too, have a flight ring!

If there's EVER an LSH movie-you'd be PERFECT for the part of Star Boy!

Now I gotta get me a STAR BOY user icon!!

Well thanks!

I'm pretty chunky, so the black helps me quite a bit!

LOL! Thanks! I have all the Green Lantern rings, but the flight ring is my favorite!

I'd enjoy being in an LSH, but not sure I could handle the kissing scenes with Dream Girl. Now Timber Wolf or Cosmic Boy would be something different ;)

True, but most of them are also counterparts for friends. The only ones available are Grizzly, Center, and Polar Bear. I don't have the height for any of them :)

Seriously, where did you get those? What size?

LOL... well, the outfit has a front zipper, but I have to peel the outfit down to get to things. I'll just lay low on the liquids.

The beard is one of the reasons I chose him this year. Of course, there will be all of three or four people who will know the character at the party, but I don't care :)

Heh! Thanks, handsome! :)

I don't think it matters. They'll know your a hot superhero, that's enough.

Where did you get the spandex? And the boots and gloves?

From: [identity profile] kybearfuzz.livejournal.com
I bought them off of Amazon.com. They are the Funtasma Captain 100 boots:

They come in size ranges. Mine are a 10-11, but they are a bit big.

The suit is one of those "full-body" spandex outfits. I cut the headpiece off and put the glitter/stars on it with fabric paint. The gloves are from a Halloween Express store and the boots I ordered from Amazon.com.
