or how about black hair with a white streak?
is there some reason you want white? i'm one of those people it's hard to tell without seeing the total costume, and then seeing both hair colors on the costume.

hooch, did you ever finalize what hair you will be doing?

you guys are going to look great

Maybe I sould just leave my hair alone, it's silver!!! I think that white would be awesome, I kind of had a vision of Billy Idol when I read that!!

No, hallo, I haven't decided whether I'm dyeing or wearing a wig, but I still want the black and red combo. I'll keep you posted.

TRied out hair extensions and it actually worked well. These were only about 8 inches or so but the ones I'll have for October will be alot longer. Had them in for about 3 days and they stayed fine. Some pics below. (not how it will be styled for October either)

I think of Spike when I think of the white hair...who was very much like Billy Idol.

I'm partial to the black hair. I think black with white streaks or vice verse would be cool. Again though I'd be partial to red streaks. But why not be different, either way you're going to look great.

I haven't ordered my boots yet, think I'm getting another tattoo this Friday so that'll dip into my funds. I do have my change jar should see what that has and use it for the boots.

lose the bandanna, and i kind of like that look gd
THa bandana was just for that ocasion wouldnt actually where on for Draven.
For those of you who don't know my Chararcters name is Draven Strigoi souns like DRAY-VIN STRI-GOY (Bonus points if you figure out the name reference).

Also a new costume change...actually alot. Originally I wanted black skinny jeans with pinstripes but now there a strange blood red/black color with rips and tears every where(there in the dryer right now so pics later :))

And the top has changed too. No more jacket with a vest and shirt and a tie, now its this cool shirt that I found (the black one)

Still has a tail which I like and I really like the lace up thing in the back. Also to go with it this ascot. I chose the white one because black would be to much black. But the white one will have blood all over it though. :D

New updates!!!

Finished the pants and the hat!!
The pants I had from a long time ago. They were black but had faded a bit so I wanted to see what happened if I dyed them blood red. They came out perfect. Than I just cut them up and roughed em' up with different files and sand paper.
Than went to home depot to buy some chains. I got a rusting kit from michales and rusted them up.



The hat was made completly from scratch. I bought felt and made a mold for the top part from news paper and masking tape. Than wrapped it in felt and used starch and heat to harden it. I decided to just leave the paper inside of it. Than I made the barbed wire from crafting wire and also rusted it. Than I dripped the rust down the hat too.



Also finished the necklace so more pics of that to come.

and a teaser pic:D

gd WOW! YOU GUYS LOOK GREAT. I LOVE YOUR HAIR, and your costumes look great. you guys did so good right down to the shadowing of your eye makeup to your teeth. i don't think anyone could have done better. who did your hair? is your girls hair her own or did you do add ons. just a great job. really great!!!!!! the hat is really awesome, but if you wear it you will lose the hair effect. are you just going to carry it with you? as a prop like?

***APPLAUSE APPLAUSE***

Again, you prove why you are my go-to-guy for all things vamp!!

The pants, the hat, the makeup...all are spectacular. Boots, too, just the PERFECT shape, size, etc.

I need to start makeup trials, and I still haven't gotten my contacts yet. :rolleyes:

Better get on the stick. :eek:
