Ada Wong from Resident Evil 4

Ada Wong (voiced in RE4 by Sally Cahill) is a character from the Resident Evil franchise.  She has appeared in several iterations throughout the course of the series.  In Resident Evil 4, Ada wears an embroidered dress with a high thigh slit.  There are a few ways you can choose to recreate her appearance, including buying a replica dress.  Otherwise, you can opt for a simpler version or a plain red dress with a similar silhouette.  You can also choose to wear either flats or heels depending on which you prefer.  Be sure to top the outfit off with a thigh holster and a prop gun, as Ada’s work as a spy means she’s always armed.

Juan Sánchez-Villalobos Ramírez from Highlander

Juan Sánchez-Villalobos Ramírez (played by Sean Connery) is an immortal being in the film Highlander who seeks out Connor MacLeod, known as the Highlander, after his first death in order to teach him the ways of the Game.  Juan’s original name was Tak Ne, but by the time he meets Connor, his style has changed significantly since his life in Egypt.  As with most historical costumes, putting Juan’s outfit together can get a little pricey, so you’ll need to decide if and when you’re willing to compromise.  A close match to Juan’s red and gold uniform might be worth the money if you want it to look authentic.  However, you can get close with an embroidered jacket and red pants.  Likewise, unless you’re willing to make a peacock feather cloak of your own, it’s unlikely you’ll find one.  But a green cape with a matching feather collar will come close, and you can add some additional feathers to it if you’d like with a little glue.  Don’t forget Juan’s signature sword, a katana forged by the father of his third wife with a white ivory handle.

Misty Luggins from The Bad Guys

Chief Misty Luggins (voiced by Alex Borstein) is a police officer intent on catching Mr. Wolf and his gang in the movie The Bad Guys.  Chief Luggins has a very narrow definition of right and wrong, which becomes apparent when she remains committed to catching the Bad Guys crew even after they’ve proven themselves to be redeemable.  Chief Luggins has ginger red hair and wears a short-sleeved police uniform with dark blue shorts.  She also wears black boots and has six stars on the lapel of her uniform shirt.

Mr. Snake from The Bad Guys

Mr. Snake (voiced by Marc Maron) is a supporting character in the DreamWorks animated feature The Bad Guys.  Mr. Snake is Mr. Wolf‘s best friend and a member of his gang.  Mr. Snake is a safe cracker by trade, making him an integral part of many of Mr. Wolf’s schemes.  To recreate Mr. Snake’s look, you’ll need to be a little flexible in your interpretation, as it’s obviously pretty difficult to actually look like a reptile without limbs.  But by layering a hibiscus-printed shirt and a bucket hat over a yellow bodysuit, you can get close.  The felt mask adds a nice touch, too.  While the one pictured here is green and part of a larger set, you can also opt to go the DIY route and follow a tutorial for creating your own.  Just make sure to adjust your materials to better suit Mr. Snake’s color scheme if that’s important to you.

Diane Foxington from The Bad Guys

Diane Foxington (voiced by Zazie Beetz) is a supporting character in the animated feature film The Bad Guys.  Governor Foxington is a reformed thief, formerly known as the Crimson Paw, who pursued a life in politics to help make up for her past transgressions.  Though initially skeptical of the redemption of Mr. Wolf and his associates including Mr. Snake, she eventually becomes one of their staunchest supporters, as well as Mr. Wolf’s love interest.  Diane sports several outfits throughout the course of the film, but two of her best include the grey suit she wears as governor and the black bodysuit with a hood she dons as the Crimson Paw. The latter will work as a fully black ensemble, though you can add some of the yellow striping details with tape or paint if you prefer.  Whichever look you choose to recreate, you can layer a fox mask, tail, and/or gloves under your outfit to get as close to the original as possible.

Mr. Wolf from The Bad Guys

Mr. Wolf (voiced by Sam Rockwell) is the main character of the DreamWorks animated film The Bad Guys.  Mr. Wolf is the leader of the Bad Guys gang, which includes Mr. Snake, Mr. Shark, Ms. Tarantula, and Mr. Pirhana.  Throughout the course of the film, Mr. Wolf tries to reform himself and his crew so they no longer fall into the villain stereotypes their species fall into.  He also allies himself with Diane Foxington, the Governor of California and a reformed thief herself, all while trying to evade the ruthless Chief Luggins.  Mr. Wolf wears a white suit and shirt with a tan belt and shoes.  To achieve the full effect, you’ll also want a wolf mask, tail, and furry gloves.

patryck from eddsworld

Patryck from Eddsworld

Patryck (voiced by and based upon Patryck Dudulewicz) is a recurring character in the webtoon Eddsworld.  Sharing some aesthetic similarities with Paul, Patryck wears his hair parted down the middle and his red turtleneck can pretty much always be seen poking out from his blue coat.  Paul often carries rifle strapped to his back; an airsoft version, or other toy counterpart, can help really sell the finished look.

lucita sky from hero elementary

Lucita Sky from Hero Elementary

Lucita Sky (voiced by Veronica Hortiguela) is a student at Hero Elementary in the PBS animated series. Lucita’s hero powers include flying, despite her fear of heights. She is also the leader of the Sparks Crew. Lucita’s superhero costume consists of shades of blue and purple, including purple boots and cape, and a blue skirt. The Sparks Crew shirt she wears can be found in some youth sizes through the PBS website, though none are white like she uses for her costume. Instead, you can purchase a plain white shirt and recreate the logo with fabric paint.

Jon from Eddsworld

Jon (voiced by Eddie Bowley) was one of Edd‘s neighbors on the webtoon series Eddsworld.  Jon lived with Eduardo and Mark and is eventually killed by Tord‘s robot, returning as a ghost in a post-credits scene.  Jon had dark blonde hair pushed toward the front of his head and wore dark grey jeans with grey and white sneakers.  He typically wore a blue button-down over a grey t-shirt.  If you’d like a twist to the original design, dressing as Ghost Jon can be achieved with a little layering of teal clothes over a bodysuit and some creative sad face art skills using fabric markers.

Cameron Poe from Con Air

Cameron Poe (played by Nicolas Cage) is the former Army Ranger imprisoned for murder at the heart of 1997’s Con Air. Poe is paroled at the beginning of the film and hitches a ride to be reunited with his wife and the daughter he’s never met on an airplane filled with violent offenders.  When the inmates take over the plane, Poe must outsmart them to help law enforcement, all while protecting the precious stuffed rabbit he’s brought as his first gift to his young daughter.  Poe’s hair is long by the time he is paroled, and once he sheds his prison shirt, he spends most of the film in jeans and a white tank top.  To sell the look at the end of the film, you’ll need some gauze for your arm as well as a little fake blood.  And don’t forget the bunny.
