Wild Woody

Wild Woody is the titular character of 1995 Sega video game.  Wild Woody must gather the scattered pieces of a totem pole by erasing enemies and creating sketches to help him in his quest.  To recreate this wacky pencil, you have two choices.  While pencil costumes do exist, few of them are oriented in the same way as Woody.  Still, you could get close by layering one over a black bodysuit and adding gloves and yellow sneakers.  If you’re up for something a little more impressionistic, you can layer a yellow sleeveless shirt and pink shorts over a bodysuit and then add a cone-shaped cap.  Give your pencil a nice sharp-looking tip by using a black fabric marker.  You can even add a silver belt to stand in as your eraser holder.

Mayor Regina Mills from Once Upon a Time

Regina Mills (played by Lana Parilla) is the Mayor of Storybrooke in the TV series Once Upon a Time.  Regina, who is later revealed to be the Evil Queen, has trapped fairy tale characters in this real-life town with no memory of who they truly are.  She is also the adoptive mother of Emma Swan‘s son Henry, and the half-sister of Zelena.  As Mayor, Regina dresses in professional-looking dresses and suits, often layered under smart-looking coats, likely due to the fact that Storybrooke is located in Maine.  To recreate Regina’s look, focus on flattering silhouettes and well-coifed hair, and don’t be afraid to pair it with a dark lip color.

Rebecca from Cyberpunk: Edgerunners

Rebecca (voiced by Alex Cazares in English) is a character from Cyberpunk: Edgerunners.  Rebecca is a petite and sharp-tongued mercenary with a soft spot for David.  Rebecca has white skin adorned with pink tattoos.  Her clothing is minimal, including a black bra and underwear as well as an oversized jacket with matching boots and headband.  Plenty of cosplay sets exist for Rebecca, though you can also go the more interpretive route by wearing a black bikini with high tops and a bomber jacket.  Either way, you’ll want a mint-colored wig as well as pink body paint and a steady hand to recreate Rebecca’s body art and complete your look.

Zoe Baker from Resident Evil 7: Biohazard

Zoe Baker (voiced by Giselle Gilbert) is a character in Resident Evil 7: Biohazard.  Zoe’s parents and brother are victims of Eveline’s mind control, which Zoe manages to evade by reading a letter from Mia Winters.  She helps Mia’s husband Ethan escape her family’s clutches, which eventually results in punishment in the form of crystallization by Eveline.  To recreate Zoe’s look, you can either choose to dress as she does herself, or emulate her crystallized form.  The first is fairly simple, requiring loose-fitting jeans, a tank top, and loafers.  If you’re up for the challenge of being crystallized, a rhinestone-studded bodysuit with a white wig and makeup to match can help replicate the creepy and ethereal appearance from the game.

Norman Jayden from Heavy Rain

benatar from your favorite martian

Benatar from Your Favorite Martian

Benatar (voiced by Ray William Johnson with Jesse Cale providing his singing voice) is a supporting character in the web series Your Favorite Martian.  A member of the titular band, Benatar suffers some rougher treatment from bandmates Puff Puff and Axel, but it doesn’t seem to bother him much.  To recreate Benatar’s look, you’ll need black pants and a blue suit jacket with a red tie.  He also has blonde hair that sweeps over his eyes, so you might need to take a little time to style your hair or a wig.  Lastly, if you don’t already have a keytar, they can be quite expensive, so don’t shy away from a toy or inflatable version instead of the real thing to complete the look.

paul from eddsworld

Paul from Eddsworld

Paul (voiced by and based upon Paul ter Voorde) is a recurring character in the web cartoon Eddsworld.  Paul looks a lot like Patryck, but is distinguishable by his extremely thick eyebrows and the fact that he almost always carries a cigarette with him.  Paul’s look consists primarily of a blue military-style jacket with a high collar, which you can layer over grey pants and boots.  If you don’t have the messy brown hair, a wig can work instead, just be sure to give it a good muss as a finishing touch to your costume.
