Yeah but it would probably slip out of place more often. I was expecting it to go over my teeth somehow but its just a piece of plastic that sits between my lips and gums. Do you wear fake teeth often?

Sounds like a pain. Cute idea, but having your teeth slipping crookedly to one side or falling out might detract from the rest of the costume.

I try to avoid it, but sometimes it's necessary (so I try to limit it to when it's *really* necessary). Now, maybe there are some good sets out there--I know some dentists make custom vampire teeth and maybe those fit better--but the few sets I've worn were painful and wouldn't stay put despite "custom fitting" the inner soft plastic layer and whatever kinds of adhesive they used. (And normally I'm pretty good with adhesives, at least where the rest of my body is involved.)

Crylol No one tries to pick up a big girl and shake her!

But I did have a guy ask 4 or 5 questions before I finally had to tell him to ask my husband his next question Roll

You really walk a fine line between "cool" and "really out there", don't you.

Yeah you're right I haven't decided if I'm going to wear them. I'm keeping it simple with the costume, I'm just wearing bunny ears and maybe a fluffy tail and whiskers with a cute outfit. I saw your costumes in the costume thread Jawdrop I didn't see a vampire costume do you have a picture?

"With lunacy comes responsibility; we have a duty to make life at least a little more surreal for those whose lives make too much sense."

Besides, I figure knowing your limits is an important piece of personal information. A lot of people (maybe most) don't get along so well with adhesives, appliances, and the chemicals used to get them off again--John Rhys-Davies, for example, when he played Gimli in Lord of the Rings reacted so badly that he could stay in makeup for no more than four hours at a time. (Quite the problem when it often takes that long to get _into_ makeup.)

Unfortunately, not--that's always been on the "to do" list, but somehow hasn't quite happened. Soon, maybe....

Here's one that is a little more adhesive-intensive; you use all sorts of glues and goos to put something like this on, because you generally want to use different types of adhesives around the eyes and near the mouth than you'd use on the rest of the head:



Bruce Campbell was doing a book-signing in town while I was in this outfit only a mile or so from where I was, so I wandered down Broadway in costume to take advantage:





But one of these days, definitely going to do the vampire thing....

Oh, you never know. I've picked up (and carried) some pretty big girls before.

Quote from chewspam :

Sometimes. I did get someone to come along and take pictures when I went off to Bruce Campbell's signing. Other times I've been able to hand someone a camera and get them to take a few shots. That usually (but not always) works better than pressing the "self timer" button, running around to the front of the camera, and finding out that it focused on the bookcase behind me and I'm a complete blur. ("This is my costume: I'm dressed as "The Human Blur.")

Some pictures at home I took by getting a wired remote for the camera and putting a self-stick rubber foot on the button, so I could set it on the floor and operate it by pressing it with my toe. There's probably a better way to do it, but at least in this digital age, I can fire off a few shots and hope that one turned out without worrying about the cost of film.

I'm not sure if I should be flattered or disturbed that I got recognized by people along the way (despite the makeup). It's hard to be scary when people are waving and calling you by name. Dontknow
