If its any help at all, i went as Harry Warden this year, and what i used was:
1 GP-7V russian gas mask(off ebay)
1 Blue Dickies Jumpsuit
1 Roll of sump pump tube (bought at menards, only about two or three feet)
1 Pair of work boots
1 Pair of generic black gloves
1 generic brown belt
1 large campbels soup can, painted army green (mock filter)
1 Yellow Helmet w/ Head light, painted Black (from village hat store)
1 black turtle neck
1 Under Armor face mask
I didn't make a fake pick axe. But it was still awesome.
another thing i did was, take some of the red food gel you use to write on cakes, and smear it on the silver vent in front of the mask. It dries and makes a great effect.
One problem with the helmet light is its not very bright and its got a weird switch on it. It runs off two AA bateries. You can buy a brighter bulb for it at radio shack. I rigged it with a new switch and it works really well.
Hope this helps,
Bill
