Carbon Costume

Billy Dilley (voiced by series creator Aaron Springer) is the titular protagonist of the Disney XD animated series Billy Dilley’s Super-Duper Subterranean Summer.  Alongside his lab partners Zeke and Marsha, Billy finds himself trapped in a strange world near the Earth’s core over their summer vacation.  Billy can be socially awkward, but is deeply intersted in science, which serves him and his friends well on their adventure.  To create your costume, you’ll need a ginger afro wig, long sleeved turquoise shirt, light blue pants, royal blue sneakers, and white gloves.  If you’d like to include Billy’s hat, you can choose a blue and white one to start with and add the “B” to the front using green fabric paint.

Principal Scudworth (voiced by Phil Lord) is the primary antagonist of the MTV animated series Clone High.  A mad scientist who created clones of historical figures as teenagers, Scudworth is employed the Secret Board of Shadowy Figures as the Principal of Clone High where he oversees students like Joan of Arc.  Principal Scudworth wears a light blue shirt, dark blue tight, black pants, and black shoes.  Over that, he wears a white lab coat and yellow rubber gloves.  Complete your costume with half moon glasses and a self-adhesive goatee.

Murderbot (played by Alexander Skarsgard) is the titular security unit in Apple TV’s Murderbot.  It is also the narrator of The Murderbot Diaries book series, upon which the series is based.  Murderbot is assigned to protect the PreservationAux team including Pin-Lee and Dr. Gurathin.  In the series, Murderbot is shown as wearing white, black, and grey armor, with an asymmetrical helmet.  To create your costume, you can start with white and grey padded clothing for motorcycle riding.  Layer knee pads, chest armor, and forearm guards with gloves over that.  For the unique helmet, you can either purchase a black helmet and carefully add details with grey and white paint, or opt for a 3D printed mask instead.

Bill is a semi-minor character in the game Alice’s Warped Wonderland/Alice in Distortionworld, created by Nightmare Project/Studio.

He shows up about a third of the way through the game, and is this game’s iteration of Bill the Lizard. He’s surprisingly used in a lot of the promotional art and trailers for it, though not as frequently appearing as some of the others.

While we don’t see his eyes in his main sprite, there is a chibi version seen in the game extras where we can tell that they’re gold and slitted. His hair is green and hangs in his face, and his tongue is like a lizard’s. Bill wears a light blue button up shirt, black slacks, a brown belt with a gold buckle, and black loafers.

In True Romance, Drexl Spivey (Gary Oldman) is a pimp and drug dealer from Detroit. He takes in Alabama Whitman, a wayward girl from Florida, before her new husband Clarence Worley takes her away. Drexl is enraged and demands compensation. Barely recognizable in this role, Oldman’s character sports dreadlocks, gold teeth, and tribal jewelry.

Zsa-zsa Korda (played by Benicio del Toro) is the primary protagonist of Wes Anderson’s The Phoenician Scheme.  Zsa-zsa is a wealthy European businessman whose life is in danger while he pursues a new business venture.  Zsa-zsa is accompanied in his travels by his daughter Liesl, a nun who he has named his sole heir, and Bjorn Lund.  Zsa-zsa is in a plane crash–one of six in his lifetime–which leaves him with several injuries.  To create your costume, you’ll want to start by choosing one of his looks and then accessorizing as necessary.  You could choose to create his desert-inspired outfit with khaki pants and jacket, and a white scarf used as a sling for his injured left arm, or his grey pinstripe suit with grey tie, white pocket square, and an abundance of bandages and gauze.
