Some of the people who read this blog really like Halloween.  This household revolves around Comic Cons, Halloween, filmmaking, and various other costuming ventures.   Sometimes I can get an entire costume with accessories finished in a season and other times a costume doesn’t come together for years. One that I have been working on is another pirate costume; one for my other son, Shaun.  Shaun’s costume got put on hold for Todd’s black Spiderman costume about two years ago.  Here is the pirate coat in its completed form.

My other son, Todd, is basically in charge of making his own garments, but although I have taught him to sew, working with stretch fabrics can be a challenge.  I took over sewing the main costume for him after he painstakingly painted the fabric to resemble the print from the original suit. 

 This costume still isn’t finished and was also put on hold as Todd was trying to figure out the best method for the webbing.  He is back to work on it, so hopefully he can have it completed by Free Comic Book Day and Phoenix Comic Con in May.
