Description

I made this costume out of a wide variety of things from a wide variety of sources.
Brown Women's dress shirt(thrift store): I cut off the bottom, made a hood out of the extra fabric pieces, sewed it to collar. Threaded bits of rope on it. I used the sleeves from the shirt for the pieces on my arms.
Men's cargo pants(thrift store): They were extremely long for me, so I hemmed them and brought them in around the ankles as well. More bits of rope sewed into these.
Light grey t-shirt(Target): snipped sleeves off, painted skinny man's chest on it, seeing as I can't exactly go topless. Even at a convention, yes. Though it seems that many other women push those boundaries...
The mask is made out of bits of fabric that I somehow managed to coax into that ambiguous shape. Cut a hole in the middle, sewed in black fabric and rope. Cut two more holes, glued in plastic water bottle bottoms that I had spray-painted with metallic silver.
Made a noose out of rope.
I used random PVC pipes that I found at Home Depot for the device that holds the fear toxin and for the syringes. I found these random rubbery sort of things that I was able to glue onto the end of the PVC pipe syringes. I glued nuts and washers on top of those. I used wooden food skewers for the needles of the syringes. I managed to get the needles to stay with a bit of magic and foam on the inside of the syringes.
I used a plain brown glove. Yup, a plain one.
I found bits of aged clear tubing and simply taped it to the inside of the pipes on my wrist.

Somehow, all of this stayed on my arm.
The PVC pipe syringes were comfortably wedged onto my fingers with the help of the faux suede glove. The taped pieces somehow stayed on.

Long description is long, but I just typed it in case anyone was curious.
