Carbon Costume

In the Coen Brothers’ film The Big Lebowski, Maude Lebowski (played by Julianne Moore) is a provocative avant-garde artist and the daughter of Jeffrey Lebowski.  She is highly critical of her father’s relationship with Bunny, and is the person responsible for the Dude losing his rug.  During their initial real life interaction, Maude is seen wearing a long olive green robe, and later, she dons a gold Viking valkyrie costume in one of the Dude’s dreams.  When crafting your Maude costume, you will need to decide whether the silhouette or the color of her robe are more important to you, as it can be very difficult to find one that does both.  Adding additional props and touches to a fabricated Maude Viking costume can help bring your costume to the next level.

He-Man is the main hero of the Masters of the Universe series, which span across comic books, an animated television series, and a feature film. He must protect his home of Etheria and the secrets of the Castle Greyskull from the wicked Skeletor. His powers include super strength and impressive fighting skills with his sword and battle axe. His famous battle cry is “For the honor of Greyskull!” as now said by She-Ra in the 2018 series. This guide includes costumes for both He-Man and his normal identity, Prince Adam (who you might recognize from the viral Youtube meme “What’s Up/What’s Going On”).

Kelsey Pokoly (voiced first by Georgina Cordova and then later by Noel Wells) is the smallest and possibly youngest member of the main gang on Craig of the Creek. She is a very dramatic child with a love of books and a wild imagination that fuels her adventures.

Kelsey’s cosplay requires just a little bit of DIY but is fairly straight-forward. Pink shorts, blue rain boots, a dark blue cape, and a pet budgie are the easy-to-gather parts of the costume. A red wig will replicate her hair but it will have to be styled in a bun that sits at the back of the head.

Her shirt is where the DIY really comes in though. The chest of Kelsey’s shirt is taken up by a large, pale heart. This can be recreated on a light blue or light teal shirt with a bleach pen. Once that’s done, the costume is ready to go!

Black Noir (played by Nathan Mitchell) is the most mysterious of The Seven. He’s one of the deadliest martial artists on the planet but that’s almost the only thing known about him other than his enhanced strength and senses.

If you cosplay Black Noir, you have two options. The first is to get custom pieces but that can get pricey. The second is to use existing pieces that get you the same look though it won’t be exact. In this case, a padded motorcycle jacket and motorcycle pants give you Black Noir’s protected look. A tactical helmet and black knit balaclava will keep your face covered though you will have to work out some sort of tinting for the lenses. Finally black combat boots and tactical gloves fully conceal your identity and turn you into Black Noir

Guild is a skin for sale in the Fortnite shop. He can be applied to any player for their Battle Royale sessions. While he might not be a separate character he sure brings a lot of personality to the table!

Guild is pretty easily identifiable among other players. His orange baseball cap, tattoos and face paint, grappling hook, and thigh sheathed-blade are all hard to miss. Never mind that his combat boots, jeans, leather belt, fingerless gloves, and grey t-shirt are generally nondescript. The thing that really stands out about his clothes is the yellow pocket on his shirt which you can achieve with some yellow fabric paint! Similarly you can use black body paint to recreate his tattoos and face paint!

Dynamike is a character in the mobile video game Brawl Stars. When players reach 2000 trophies, they can unlock Dynamike. His attack involves throwing sticks of dynamite. His Gadget is the Fidget Spinner which allows him to spin rapidly and fire sticks of dynamite, prompting a speed boost. This costume guide features his Coach skin released in February 2020, compared to default Dynamike, where he lobs soccer balls instead of bombs as a gym teacher.

Izzy (voiced by Katie Crown) is one of the more dynamic members of the Total Drama Island cast. She is high-strung and kind-hearted with a trusting and competitive nature.

She’s also very in tune with nature so her costume reflects that. She keeps her hair loose and wild. A green crop top, green shorts, and light green wrap make up most of her outfit. She also wears green slip-on shoes and a green wrap bracelet on one wrist.

In the stop motion series Joshua Jones, the titular character is a cheerful fellow who lives on his canal boat Delilah with his canine companion Fairport. Together they ride up and down Clearwater Canal, making deliveries, doing odd jobs, and helping others in need on occasion.

Few shows are as iconic of the late ’90s and early 2000s than Friends. And while everyone has their favorites, pretty much everyone agrees that Chandler Bing (played by Matthew Perry) was the funniest member of the group. He always had a joke or sarcastic comment ready. Whether or not it was the right thing to say, well, that varied from comment to comment.

Dressing like Chandler is very easy. Classic jeans and brown boots paired with a bowling shirt under an unbuttoned black vest. Both the bowling shirt and the vest can be used to mimic several of Chandler’s outfits and the other pieces are versatile as well which makes this a great cosplay for people who want their pieces to transition from one costume to another.

Emz is an undead character resembling a purple mummy from the mobile video game Brawl Stars. Upon achieving 8000 trophies, players can unlock Emz as a Brawler. She’s a popular teen influencer who’s inseparable from her phone and her hairspray. Her Gadget, the Friendzoner, pushes away enemies nearby. Emz’s voice-lines are mostly made up of hashtags.
