Halloween 2012

Viking!

I'm making my costume this year. Last night I made one bracer for my right arm. It's really cool. I would totally wear that kind of thing around if I could.

I got a bad-ass helmet,

LIKE THIS:

a blonde wig

and a big hammer. Name:  foam-war-hammer.jpg

I'm going to make a fur vest and boot covers. I'll make a big belt, and buckle too.

I should have taken pics while I was making the bracer... I'll try to remember to when I make the left one.

anyone going overboard like me this year?

No. Let's review:

'overboard'

'oar'

'or what?'

'a drifter'



Then again, hobos probably make good rafts.
