Carbon Costume

Snake (voiced in Japanese by Takuma Terashima and in English by Spike Spencer) is one of the secondary main characters in the anime/manga Kuroshitsuji/Black Butler.

Originally one of the first-string members of the Noah’s Ark Circus with an act to match his name, Snake eventually ended up coming to work at the Phantomhive manor, after the horrific end of all of his friends. In current storyline, he is on a mission with Finny, at Ciel’s order.

He has pale grey hair, matching eyelashes/eyebrows, golden snake-like eyes, and scaled skin. Snake carries around several of his own snakes because he can speak with them coherently, so he’s never usually seen without one. His outfit is very monochromatic, with the main highlights of his shirt being stand-out thick white stripes, while the rest is black detailed, with black pants, and thigh high lace up black boots.

Beast (voiced in Japanese by Yuko Kaida and in English by Tia Ballard) is part of Noah’s Ark Circus in the anime/manga Kuroshitsuji/Black Butler, in the Book of Circus episode set.

She is one of the main first-string members in the circus, and specializes in the animal taming portion of the show, along with her pet tiger, Betty. She’s known the rest of the members of the first-string since she was young and is very close with them.

Beast has black ringlet-curled bob cut hair, red eyes, and theatrical black and red makeup. The outfit we usually see her in is a performers suit, very black and shiny and strappy, with lots of red flowing accents, including a red hairband with a large floral detail on top. She also has mesh gloves and stockings, topped with a diamond pattern, and black shin-high stiletto boots.

Dagger (voiced in Japanese by Nobuhiko Okamoto and in English by Michael Sinterniklaas) is one of the secondary main characters in the Book of Circus arc in the anime/manga Kuroshitsuji/Black Butler.

He is one of the first-string members of the Noah’s Ark Circus troupe, and their resident juggler and knife thrower. He tends to be a bit hot-headed when it comes to other people approaching Beast, but is generally rather friendly to others around him.

Dagger has light green eyes with purpley-red eyeshadow around them, red makeup dots on his cheeks, and blonde hair with black bangs (he had black hair as a child, it appears to be bleached). His outfit colors are similar to Snake’s, with a few more pops of colors. Dagger wears a red and black hat off-center on his head, a black and white striped shirt with a ruffled collar, a tan vest over top, black capri-style pants with a skirt piece over top, and black and white boots.

Kabane Kusaka (voiced in Japanese by Natsumi Fujiwara and in English by Madeleine Morris) is the main character of the anime/manga Kemono Jihen.

He starts off the series completely isolated from people that aren’t his abusive aunt and cousin until he’s rescued by Inugami and taken to join his supernatural agency, where he meets Akira and Shiki. Kabane is half-human and is using the aid of the agency to try and find his parents.

Kabane has short, messy spiked black hair and big red eyes with very light and large eyebrows over top. The outfit that he wears is a reluctant hand-me-down from Shiki because he needed new clothes. It’s a two piece black and red shirt and jacket set with white skeleton detailing on the top half, and he wears black and white sneakers with red gloves finishing off the look.

This is a follow-up article to the previous Doll one I did, but this one will be covering her performance outfit. If you would like to read up on how to make her Freckles look, it’s linked here!

I included the wig and scar makeup used in the prior tutorial, but you can’t see them past the headpiece usually, so that’s optional if you want to use them or not. This outfit is a lot more showy than her civilian outfit, mostly capitalizing on a rose motif. The dress is puffed up with a white rose petticoat trim, the headdress is comprised of white roses, and the rest of her accessories also mirror that theme. She emulates almost a ballet dancer stylized doll, while doing her tightrope balancing act.

For the parasol you may need to paint the handle if you want it to be completely accurate, and for the tights I was unable to find a pair split exactly in that style, so I included two pairs of long socks, please just use one from each to have the same effect.

Phinks Magcub (voiced in Japanese by Kenichirō Ōhashi and in English by David Vincent) is part of the Phantom Troupe in the anime/manga HunterxHunter.

He’s one of the strongest members of the troupe, with a nen ability centered around extremely strong punch throwing. Phinks is one of the original founding members of the troupe, having known Chrollo since they were kids.

He has dirty blonde hair, often worn pulled back tightly, and speck-like eyes. While he does have another outfit that he’s seen wearing, the one we mostly see him in is this tracksuit-like one. A matching emerald green tracksuit with white and red detailing, and grey-blue detailed sneakers to top it all off.

Wendy (voiced in Japanese by Mayumi Shintani and in English by Rachel Robinson) is one of the secondary main characters in the Book of Circus arc in the anime/manga Kuroshitsuji/Black Butler.

She is one of the first-string members of Noah’s Ark Circus, and works in tandem with Peter in a trapeze artist act. While she looks like a young child, we do not know her actual age, as she is severely stunted in growth and has looked like this for a very long time. She tends to be more soft-spoken and acts in a way that indicates her true age.

Wendy has mid-tone long brown hair, tied up in two large buns almost to the side of her head, and has deep brown eyes highlighted by long false eyelashes and three magenta diamonds under her eye. She wears a child-like pink dress, accented with a large amount of ruffles and stripes, a crown headpiece, black heel-less tights with a pompom on the end, and ribbons on her arms.

Peter (voiced in Japanese by Yūki Tai and in English by Vic Mignogna) is one of the secondary main characters in the Book of Circus arc in the anime/manga Kuroshitsuji/Black Butler.

He is one of the first-string members in Noah’s Arc Circus and does the flying trapeze act with Wendy. Like Wendy, he looks extremely young, but is very stunted in his growth and is much older than he appears. Unlike Wendy, he very much does not act his supposed age, and is prone to being irritable and rude, even violent at times. Wendy and Jumbo appear to be two of the people he cares the most about, being almost inseparable from Wendy and treating Jumbo with respect.

He has short, overly-fluffy blonde hair topped with a small green off-center hat, and he has light blue eyes, accented by green diamonds on the opposite side of Wendy’s pink ones. His circus outfit consists of a double-ruffled high white collar, a puff sleeve white button up short-sleeved shirt, a lime green vest, dark green puff bloomer-style shorts with yellow star detailing on them, and open toe white tights.
