Gym Leader Costume

I am Zach Strebeck and I am wearing the costume. It is my take on a real world poison type gym leader from the Pokemon series. (Halloween'd up of course) it is made of an actual respirator, a bald cap, a few layers of liquid latex to start. Then tore some holes in the face for the split effect and painted them accordingly, though not on the bald cap. On the bald cap we put down a layer of latex, rolled toilet paper squares into cylinders and made the circles. Covered them in another layer of latex and painted accordingly. To get the char effect we used black hair color spray and a light layer of charcoal powder. Add my contact from pinkyparadise.com and you have my costume! Total make up time: roughly 3.5 hours.
