Thread: Some more help please new costume idea

Tweet

Everyone has such good ideas here on this site so I thought I would seek additional help. My son wants to go as a dead hockey player.....I have a puck which is sliced in half and I thought of attaching it to his chest or somewhere like as if he got hit with it.....Not too sure if he should wear the old michel myers goalie mask or make his face all smashed up...fat lip black eyes...broken nose....not too sure how to do broken nose or fat lip though. We had a plain white hockey jersy and I put a number 1 on the back with his last name. Also put his number on the sleeves, the front is empty need some sort of something as per a team, thought of something like on strike or locked out. Something comical as per the stike. Maybe a sign saying will play hockey for food....Help anyone for additional ideas for any part of the costume.

My other son is much simpler he says he just wants to go as dead. No paticular theme. But I will take any ideas....lol

I will have to post pics after....How do you post a pic here.

Thanks,

How about using the hockey puck on his forehead? maybe with spirit-gum?

Do you have one of the helmets with the cage faceplate? (check second hand sport equip store) Hockey stick? maybe a set of skates to hang over his shoulder?

Black out a couple teeth, fake some scars, black eye. In another thread somewhere in the last week, someone mentioned using tissues and some form of latex (?) to do cheap no-mask effects, and would work really well for the nose and might for lip. Or he could just get into a fight with his brother.

For your team logo, how about a Grim Reaper? Pumpkin? Vampire?

Does your other kid want to be fresh dead, or old dead? What kind of wounds is he into?

AND why couldn't you have come to us before there were only 4 days left?!?!

I want a hearse.

Well you know kids.....last minute I have been asking them for weeks. Dead Hockey kid....Did his jersey last night it looks good will do some logo thing tonight. We have a goalie mask he wants to wear and we will open it....Yes putting the puck on his forhead with blood will look cool. I will test the ideas tonight as per makeup. I have been working with tissues and latex for my own costume to make a slit throat effect and it works great.

The other kid decided last night that he is going to be Alice Cooper which my goodness is very easy. We have a wig, makeup, gothic clothing and he is set. Wish I had a straight jacket that would be cool....going to the dollar store to see if I can find a long snake to wrap around his neck. Presto he is done.

Thanks for your ideas....Do you have any ideas concerning doing a NHL Lockout theme for my other son?

If you could work it into the costume it may be cool to have one of thoes plastic hockey stick blades sticking out of his back or chest.

"I take it from that little impressed noise that you are interested in purchasing that matter transporter, sir."

Yes I like the idea of a plastic stick protruding out of his back. I will try tonight.
