WatchmenComicMovie.com Forum

I know we have several threads for single characters such as Rorschach or Comedian, but I thought it would be better if we had one single thread for all the other 'misc' characters. Complete or In-Progress shots.

Do you have anything planned?

I've made Walter Kovacs already, but I'm currently putting together a Nite Owl I costume, and part of me really wants to make Mothman so I can just wander around acting drunk and disorderly all day

Also if you find any AWESOME cosplays other people have done, stick em up here too

Here is my Walter Kovacs to start:

haha, yes!
I actually just bought Rock Band and have named my band 'Crimebusters'. Which is a really sucky name for a band but I'd just come back frommy 2nd viewing..and I was alll hyped up again xD

I just bought some light brown leatherette for Nite Owl I's hood, got some yellow leatherette bookmarked to buy soon too. Does anyone know if he wears tights with the trunks?

In the film, yes! Flesh coloured tights for the film! It's very "Boy Wonder" looking! I bet he's hiding a pair of hairy legs underneath them. XD

They're very thick though. Try Capezio or Discount Dance Supply if you want to shop online.
Aaaaand thanks to the lovely Spectre I am picturing Clint Carleton in a dance belt.

LOL, jeteing across the stage?

I checked DDS last night before posting this hoping to be able to give a direct link. Their mens' tights are only in black and white right now. But Capezio directly or Danskin (I LOOOOOVE their ultrasoft miscrofiber) may have nude-colored.

Eh, just checked Capezio. No-go. The white is dyable though with Rit dye.

suddenly my jokes about "Watchmen: The Ballet" don't seem so much like jokes anymore...

Shazz, body tights might not be a bad option for a Nite Owl 1, especially if you're wearing something on top that might be uncomfortable against bare skin. Whatever you get, make sure to go footed or convertible so they don't pull up too much around your ankles.

I like the dancing tights better than my idea of thick pantyhose. Great suggestion.

I asked this cosplay designer (Yukilefay whose playing Sally) how she did the pattern on Nite Owl's trunks. It was done with acyrlic paint and a TINNYYYY brush.

I snapped a pic of this girl dressed as Ozy on opening night... the elevator at the theater actually looks like that normally!

I liked her squid companion!



(sorry 'bout the low quality)

Thanks for the suggestions, guys^^ I found some on ebay yesterday, plus got some lovely yellow spandex for the big Owl pants xD I also got me some leather gloves and boots, and looking at a good mid-brown suede jacket to customize.

I like the idea of using acrylic to add the pattern to the trunks, my other idea was to cut out the bits separately and sew them on to give a little bit of a relief feel. But I'll have to check the ref.pictures some more to see if that would look good or not.

SS, that's awesome you can do this for a living haha! I've been cosplaying for about 7 years now but I still don't think I'm good enough to do anything that professional LOL.

P.s. That girl dressed as Ozy is AWESOME! I really want to do Adrian one day, with the purple suit. That or Mothman...

Hey all! I just joined here and thought I'd share my two Sally Costumes. The first one is from the comic and the second one is the movie (although it's still not complete. Needs the corset and wig and a few minor modifications).

Welcome aboard, LadyS. That's some damn nice work.

I always wanted to dress up as purple-suit Adrian. It gives off that cosplayer vibe while not going too deep into "hardcore" territory.

Thank Curiosity! Glad you like them.

BlackDoom, you do realize that if you wear that, it's ok for people to sing that Night at the Roxbury song whenever you walk by.

*bobs head*

What fabric are his trunks made out of? I thought I could make them from spandex,but now I see it's not that at all
