Carbon Costume

In Shrek 2, the usually unattractive ogre Shrek finds himself temporarily transformed into a handsome human.  In his new form, he must thwart Fairy Godmother‘s plan to have Fiona fall in love with Prince Charming.  Because his body changes size when he transforms, Shrek must steal new clothes when he becomes a human.  His new look includes dark green leggings, a tunic, and a red and green vest.  You may not be able to find an exact match for his vest, so choose one with a similar color palette or a silhouette.  Finish your look with a great head of brown hair, and brown shoes.

Yuki (voiced in Japanese by Kazuhiko Inoue and in English by Rome Elliot) is the secondary main character of the anime/manga series, Gravitation.

He is a romance novelist with a huge backlog of personal trauma, and immediately butts heads with Shuichi from the moment they meet. They do eventually mostly work things out, and move into a relationship with each other.

Yuki has bronzeish gold eyes, and loose, semi-long golden hair, partially worn over one eye. Like Shuichi, he has a few different outfits throughout the series, though mostly in the same colorscheme. For this one, he wears a deep blue button-up shirt, with a black, open casual blazer over top, and black slacks. In his left ears, he wears a small, silver hoop earring.

Dave Grohl is an American rock musician, singer, songwriter, and record producer. From 1990 to 1994, he was the drummer of Nirvana, the grunge rock band featuring Kurt Cobain and Kris Novoselic. Afterwards, he founded Foo Fighters, for which he sings, writes songs, and plays guitar. Some notable Foo Fighters songs include “Everlong” and “My Hero.”

Sylvester J. Pussycat, Sr. (originally voiced by Mel Blanc) is one of the Looney Tunes.  A black and white cat, Sylvester has a lisp and uses the catchphrase, “Sufferin’ succotash,” often during his skirmishes with Tweety Bird.  To recreate Sylvester’s look, you have a few choices.  Replica costumes do exist which include a full-head mask designed to closely resemble the cartoon character.  Pair this with white animal paw gloves and slippers to complete the look.  Alternately, if full-face masks aren’t your thing, you could use a black and white onesie with the same gloves and slippers, and simply add a black and white cat tail and ears to your costume.  As long as you take the time to memorize Sylvester’s signature phrase, there will be no doubt which cat you’re trying to emulate.

Soul (voiced in Japanese by Kōki Uchiyama and in English by Micah Solusod), is the titular character of the anime/manga Soul Eater.

He generally shares the main character spot with his meister, Maka, who he cares deeply for despite the two of them nearly constantly bickering with each other. Soul is a scythe-based weapon, capable of transforming a singular limb, or his entire body, into a blade for Maka to wield.

Soul has white, spiky hair, often worn up with a patched headband, bright red eyes, and a mouthful of extremely sharp teeth. His early series outfit consists of a black and golden yellow jacket with soul emblems on it, burgundy pants, and chunky shoes in the same color and style as his jacket.

Manny is from the movie Swiss Army Man by The Daniels, and is played by Daniel Radcliffe. Manny is an animated corpse that has washed up on the shore where Hank finds him. Hank has been stranded on a deserted island and runs into him, and throughout the film helps him find the motivation to survive. Hank teaches Manny how to be a person again and through it, questions his old ways and learns about himself.

Manny wears cool tones in comparison to Hank, who wears warm ones. He wears lots of blue like his two piece suit and tie. He of course is also very dirty and his clothes are worn from being washed up on this island. This can be replicated with any kind of brown acrylic or fabric paint to add to the clothes to make them look distressed.

Scout Master Randy Ward is from the film Moonrise Kingdom by Wes Anderson, and is played by Edward Norton. This character is a Khaki Scout troop leader in the film that Sam Shakusky is a part of.

Scout Master Ward wears a full khaki getup like the rest of the group with scout patches, a ranger hat, long socks, and a yellow bandana. If you’re someone who enjoys sewing, add yellow piping to the costume as a detail to bring this uniform all together.

Boris (voiced by Noriaki Sugiyama) is the Cheshire Cat character in the Heart no Kuni no Alice/Alice in the Country of Hearts dating game series/movie.

He is one of the route options throughout the game series, and is an absolute menace to most of the other characters around him, particularly Alice and Pierce (the Dormouse). He’s very fond of riddles, and likes to work with machinery, crafting his own add-ons to weapons.

Boris has golden slitted cat eyes, and short and fluffy dark pink hair, with cat ears set to the sides. His outfit is color-matched to his hair, with a big pink striped boa, and pink zipper/border detailing on his black croptop and skirt/shorts combo, and a fluffy pink tail. He also has several gold jewelry accents, as well as black and pink gloves, matching striped socks, and white shoes with chunky black soles.
