    I woke up all barfy with barely any sleep.

    I didn't even indulge in any candy or booze last night. :( I'm just sick.

    Sounds like a classic case of candy and booze deficiency.

    Oh yeah, some girl at the party broke something and made a mess and felt really bad, so she offered to come back to clean it up and then gave people candy. Kit Kats, yay!

    There were a lot of costume ideas that go great with the long hair I don't have anymore.

    That's a pretty good one, though.

    My costume was holding a pair of tongs with a Sharper taped to one of them. I'd go around with a piece of paper and carefully outline my hand.

    Nice! Yeah I didn't buy a proper style tank top, but I already had a grey one that says "American Daredevil Evel Knievel" which seems like a shirt Ambrose would like

    Otherwise my hair is about the right length so I just wrapped my fists and dunk some water on my head

    Ah yes. That old team costume, Guy Fawkes, Luigi, and a horrible burn victim.

    Well, I did briefly try to convince the kid and wife to be characters from Fallout 3 New Vegas as well but then the wife just rolled her eyes at me, my daughter laughed, and they went back to browsing Patty's Party Palace.

    At least I got to find out what Luigi looks like in a Guy Fawkes mask when Jeneva took it off at the community bon fire.

    Oh well, time to see what Parent Tax candy is for breakfast. :P

    Post some photos, man!

    It got really cold and drizzly here, so I ended up never taking off my jacket and hoodie at the party. Which actually sorta helped the look. I got "MMA fighter", and "CM Punk" as guesses, which isn't bad when you're expecting 0 recognition.

    I drank a bunch of pumpkin beer at my halloween party then fell asleep with my wife on a couch

    people posed for photos with us while we were asleep

    RUDE

    also 2 of the like five dudes at the party of 40 or 50 women took it on themselves to "improve" the music and in doing so ensured long stretches of silence when their song stopped and there was nothing after it and then the stereo overheated and turned itself off because they were playing everything so loud it clipped out the speakers.

    EXTRA RUDE

    Friday is no good for some people. I wouldn't have minded a Saturday night party, especially with Daylights Savings here in the US. You get a free hour of partying!

    How did or what did you build the breast plate out of ?

    I built the breastplate primarily out of a thermoplastic called Worbla. You can heat it with a heat gun and drape it over things to get their shape. It has an adhesive built in, so it can attach to itself while warm and stay pretty solid afterwards. I basically wrapped the edges around some craft foam to make it less painful to wear and smoothed out the shape by doing the following steps:

    1. Paint 1-2 coats of Gesso
    2. If smoothing is necessary, use spackling putty (the stuff you use to smooth over drywall that starts off pink and goes white when cured)
    3. Sand the spackling putty, then add a coat of gesso (skip this step if you didn't have to do Step 2)
    4. 3-5 coats of wood glue to make the surface smooth
    5. Sand, prime, paint, then cover the surface with Rub N Buff (a wax-based liquid that gives the armour a metallic sheen)
    6. Weather parts of it with black acrylic paint and add highlights with light grey acrylic.
