The Gamers Arms

Looks like I'm not doing the group thing this year so trying to get some ideas for a solo Halloween costume. What does everybody else here do? Bin bag and witches hat not acceptable lol.

My preferred role is that of the insufferable grouch who hides sullenly indoors and shakes a belligerent fist whenever the doorbell goes to signal the arrival or trick or treaters.

....save electric.....

Haha. Fortunately it's for a Halloween party in a cave so it's somebody else's electric

Mad doctor is always an easy one.
Get a lab coat from your nearest student union, some fake blood to smear on it, make yourself (DO NOT TAKE A REAL ONE) a meat cleaver (cardboard and flat tin foil ftw), pale up, put some self surgery make up lines on and sorted.

Not done Halloween for years......

Was it Brightroar who did that amazing Predator outfit back in the PW days?

That's probably taking it to a more professional level. I once went as a giant pumpkin thing (I probably looked more like a sweet potato in fairness). That was easy to make with stiffish wire and orange dyed bed sheets at al.

I also did a "zombie bob marley" which was pretty fun. Just giggled together lots of 70s shit and wig then did zombie make up and finished it off with a stereo playing the marley classics.

I had a plan as far back as last year to get together a Moritz Stamm set-up a la Deutschland 83. Essentially just Bundeswehr milsurp, only matching the part of a signals Leutnant, with a loud t-shirt underneath.

My ex-girlfriend is currently not talking to me, however, and so I have no Halloween party to go to in the first place, so luckily my lack of preparation doesn't matter.

The helmet's still in our house, although it's seen better days.

Also that was 6 years ago. How in the hell do you remember the username of a post that long ago?

I remember Brightroar and her Halloween game as well tbf.

And what... what did you guys do to that helmet?

Err, move it a bit. She used foam pipe insulation for the dredds, and the paint never properly stuck to it and has since flaked off.

I definitely wasn't suggesting it got used in some nefarious Predator-themed sex game... -_-

While I've no doubt that somewhere on the Internet there is an imageboard sharing pictures of sexy predators, it is not somewhere I have bookmarked.
