{NT}Halloween Costume?????

[BAMFCentral]

Okay has anybody ever made a NC costume? I recieved a request for one in an e-mail, but, other than the Home Made ones seen in Wizard Magazine, I have never really seen one.

Does anybody have a good pattern or idea for a Nightcrawler costume?

[Elwing]

I have considered and despaired, since, honestly, my abs aren't remotely good enough. And I'm just no man crazy enough to make a good girl-bamf...

Ha ha! Ya know there are TWO costumes that i've always wanted to get/make ever since I was like 7 or 8 years old. A SPIDER-MAN costume and a NIGHTCRAWLER one! It would always crack my little sister up when i'd stick a belt in the back of my pants for a tail, make the 'spock' fingers and pretend I could climb walls... (Dont ask!)

The Nightcrawler ones in the Wiz issues blew me away...

I'm very curious to see what info comes up in regards to making one!

BAMF!

[Knight_Crawler]

I am, indeed making a Nightcrawler costume for this Halloween, and, funny you should mention it, a Spidey one as well. I MIGHT discuss details with an interested few...and anyone with general sewing tips should definitely post here!!!

Kick A@@ KNIGHT_CRAWLER!
This I have to see!

(Hey maybe youll make it into the next Wizard mag Halloween issue!!)


BAMF!

Hey, Knight_Crawler. I'm an artist who specializes in fibers. I don't know everything, but if you have a specific question about materials and other things I'll be glad to help.

Nifty, zhat reminds me of last Halloween when I had three costumes. I was a witch at zhe school dance, an anime character at a sleepover(Just ask Fasheem, it was a sight to see) and a vampire for school.
Ahh..sweet memories...Well not really, I was too doped up on candy to remember zhat much.
I wouldn't know where to start with a Nightcrawler costume...the ears alone might be kind of a challenge. But hey, you've still got about 9 months to figure it out.

I think the ears and face would be easy.

Vampire Teeth for the Fangs

Blue Face Makeup for the general blue, of course you could go all out and some artistic painting.

Get some Spock ears, there always seems to be a pair for sale. And dye them blue.

The costume is the tricky part.

[Garble]

I've tried putting one together in the past.
The hardest part is just getting a good black body suit. Tights only SEEM like a good idea....

And, of course... the tail is a challenge.

[BlueElfEars]

I would think that the hardest part would be the teleportation!
The tail would basically be a long tube with a pointy triangle on the end. There are a couple of nice, dark blue, fuzzy fabrics that I've seen out there.
You just need to decide how long you want it, cut it out, sew it and stuff it.
(Remember to put the fuzzy side on the INSIDE when you're sewing)
