Carbon Costume

In a teaser trailer for Deadpool 2, Deadpool (Ryan Reynolds) appears in a brown afro and gives painting tips in a calm, soothing voice, channeling the lovable personality of Bob Ross. But when Bob Ross talked about whacking his paint brush, I don’t think he meant it that way.

Though she claims to be merely a housewife, Fullmetal Alchemist’s Izumi Curtis (Shoko Tsuda /
Christine Auten) is also a master alchemist and a skilled martial artist. After leaving home, Edward (Romi Park / Vic Mignogna) and Alphonse Elric (Rie Kugimiya / Maxey Whitehead) find themselves under her tutelage, and she grows to love them as her own children. Izumi’s hair is either styled into dreadlocks or braids, depending on who you ask, but the rest of her signature outfit is very straightforward.

Okabe Rintarou is the main protagonist of Steins;Gate. He is a first year student attending Tokyo Denki University, and calls himself a Crazy Mad Scientist. He acts like a villain, but is rather immature as he frequently shows traits of Chunibyou syndrome despite being a grown-up man.

In 1992’s Batman Returns, Michelle Pfeiffer plays Selina Kyle aka Catwoman, who is tragically murdered by being pushed out of a window. Selina’s style aside from her stitched cat suit is a lot of wool + fur coats and black dresses. Her makeup also consists of grey and brown eyeshadow and rose pink lipstick, contrasting to her blue eyeshadow and red lipstick when in costume.

Leorio Paradinight is one of the main Hunters in the manga/anime series Hunter x Hunter. He is a member of the Zodiacs with the codename “Boar”. He is currently a medical student, with a goal to become a doctor. His weapon of choice is the switchblade

In 1997 when Batman & Robin was released, the critics bashed the hell out of it. It is one of the most disappointing films in history by statistics. And personally, one of the only things I adore about the movie in general is Uma Thurman as Poison Ivy (knowing how much I looked up to the character in general during my childhood).

Aside from Poison Ivy’s main costume, I decided to take a turn towards her laboratory uniform as Dr. Pamela Lillian Isley since I find it sexier, and less cheesy. It’s one tutorial that’s easy to start, and perfect for a last minute idea. You could literally go to Wal-Mart and buy these items for less than $20 (then proceed to distress the clothing if I may so add). The items needed are: a tank top, a beige skirt, and some red-hot long hair. If you want it authentically made, vines and chemistry instruments would really pull the whole look together.

In the direct-to-video movie Batman: Assault on Arkham, Joker plants a dirty bomb that Batman must find, all the while dealing with a superteam of villains called the Suicide Squad, which includes Harley Quinn, Deadshot, Captain Boomerang, and more.

In DC Bombshells, Batwoman (real name Kate Kane) is a vigilante who earned her name by fighting crime with a bat and her baseball uniform. Her costume is inspired by the women’s baseball uniforms in the 1940’s. For authenticity, use the iron-on patch and numbers to recreate her team logo and number, 52. She also has “batwoman” written on her bat, which can be easily added to the prop bat.
