Carbon Costume Games
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.
Sebastian Castellanos from The Evil Within/Psycho Break
Sebastian Castellanos (voiced in Japanese by Hiroyuki Kinoshita, and in English by Anson Mount, in the first game) is the main character of the horror game The Evil Within/Psycho Break.
With a large amount of tragedies in his life prior to the start of the game, he struggles with severe depression and alcoholism, leaving himself prone to mental strain. This leads him to be very easy to pull in to the STEM connection, along with Leslie, Kidman, and Joseph.
As a detective with the KCPD, Sebastian wears a pretty standard outfit, a grey striped vest over a white button-up shirt, accented with a red tie, shoulder holsters for his gun, a tactical belt to carry the rest of his necessities such as a lantern, brown jeans, and black lace up shoes. For his hair I had a bit of difficulty finding an exact match for shade in the wig style, but if you have short, darker hair, it should be easy to just smooth it back as he does.
Joseph Oda from The Evil Within/Psycho Break
Joseph Oda (voiced in Japanese by Isshin Chiba and in English by Yuri Lowenthal) is from the horror game The Evil Within/Psycho break.
He’s part of Sebastian’s three man squad, along with Kidman working for the KCPD. Joseph also gets dragged into the STEM system, and becomes greatly affected by the monstrous pull inside of it, being taken over by its force more than once, attacking his friends in the process.
While in a similar style to Sebastian’s outfit, Joseph’s has a few different aspects to it. His is a more polished looking navy-blue greyish vest over a white button up shirt, with belted dress pants to match the vest, black lace up shoes, matching black leather gloves, and black thick rimmed glasses. He also wears a shoulder holster, and has a tie similar to Sebastian’s, though his is held in place with a tie clip.
Johnny Klebitz from Grand Theft Auto 4
In Grand Theft Auto IV, Johnny Klebitz (voiced by Scott Hill) is the acting president of The Lost MC, keeping the peace in Liberty City with rival gang The Angels of Death. However when the president Billy Grey returns from rehab, all hell breaks loose and a civil war erupts among The Lost.
Pico from Friday Night Funkin’
In Friday Night Funkin’, Pico is hired by Daddy Dearest to kill his ex Boyfriend after being humiliated by him in a sing-off. After locating his target, Pico changes his mind and decided instead to challenge him to a rap battle.
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.
Juli Kidman from The Evil Within/Psycho Break
Juli Kidman (voiced in Japanese by Yūko Kaida and in English by Jennifer Carpenter, in the first game) is part of the main group of characters in the horror game The Evil Within/Psycho Break.
While on paper assigned to the same unit in the KCPD as Sebastian and Joseph, Kidman’s allegiances aren’t so clear, as we spend part of the game and the DLC getting into her backstory, who she’s really working for, and what Leslie has to do with her part of the plot.
Kidman wears a standard white button-up shirt with dark-wash jeans, and has a shoulder holster, as well as a thigh one, slightly different from the other two. She has thicker soled stiletto heeled boots, which at first glance seem a bit impractical as an on-mission detective, but when we finally get a chance to play as her, she uses them to kick in monster’s heads. Effective footwear.
Luis Fernando Lopez from Grand Theft Auto 4
In Grand Theft Auto IV, Luis Fernando Lopez (voiced by Mario D’Leon) is a former member of the Northwood Dominican Drug Dealers. In The Ballad of Gay Tony, his life takes a turn when he meets “Gay Tony” Prince, a nightclub owner in Liberty City. They develop a friendship and work together, first with Luis as his bodyguard and later as his business associate.
Dread Ducky from Dark Deception
Dread Duckies are enemies that appear in the Stranger Sewers level of horror indie game Dark Deception, as bloodthirsty minions of the enemy boss Doom Ducky. Dread Duckies are hard mechanical duck floats atop a pair of shriveled rotten legs. They also wear traffic cones on their heads.
Karl Heisenberg from Resident Evil Village
In Resident Evil Village, Lord Karl Heisenberg is the patriarch of the Heisenberg family. He’s a genius engineer who runs the Heisenberg factory and serves Mother Miranda in the Eastern European mountains. He first encounters Ethan Winters in Castle Dimitrescu, where he entombs him in scrap metal and brings him to Lady Dimitrescu and the other lords.
