In Paint, Carl Nargle (Owen Wilson) is a soft-spoken artist teaching viewers how to paint on public television. His calming voice, majestic perm, and oil landscapes bring to mind beloved TV host Bob Ross of PBS’s The Joy of Painting fame.

Shout (Thomas Hobson) is a character in the Nickelodeon series, The Fresh Beat Band. He is the keyboardist for the titular band. Shout has a ton of energy and excitement, though he’s also very intelligent. His catchphrase is “Cool beans!” As seen with his outfit, his favorite color is orange.

Miya (voiced in Japanese by Takuma Nagatsuka and in English by Ry McKeand) is one of the main cast members of the anime Sk8 the Infinity.

He is one of the younger members of ‘S’ but is very well known in the circle for his talent. Miya does skating competitions, training to move forward with it professionally with the help of his manager. Aside from skateboarding, he also enjoys playing video games.

Miya has fluffy black hair with two ahoges, and vibrant green eyes. His outfit is very cat themed, with a striped shirt underneath a bright green and blue hoodie with cat ears, eyes, and a tail attached. He wears a pair of gloves while he skates, black sport shorts, blue socks with orange stripes on them, and yellow and white shoes with blue stripes. Miya’s skateboard is black with a purple X on the top, and a cat/game motif across the bottom.

Count Dracula (played by Nicolas Cage) is the centuries-old vampire who keeps the titular R.M. Renfield in his employ in the horror comedy Renfield.  Renfield has been the Count’s familiar for centuries, helping the intimidating vampire secure food and achieve his full power.  All is well and good until Renfield decides he’s had enough.  Count Dracula’s attire in the film varies, but you can always bet he’s wearing something snazzy and a little over the top.  Two of his best looks include a red velvet suit with a golden brooch instead of a tie, as well as an all-black ensemble that includes a fur-trimmed coat and a cane.  No matter which look you choose, you’ll need white makeup and blue lipstick to achieve a truly undead look.  Accessorize with long nails, terrifying teeth, and plenty of oversized rings.

Gareki (voiced in Japanese by Kamiya Hiroshi and in English by Greg Ayres) is the secondary main character in the anime/manga Karneval.

He’s very smart for his age and a highly competent thief, with a large distrust of people around him due to how he grew up. This has changed over the course of the series, with him growing more open towards the people that care about him, that he cares about in return.

Gareki has messy black hair and grey-blue eyes, which he wears goggles over when they’re not perched on the top of his head. He wears a black, high-collared undershirt and dark brown/maroon pants, with a long blue coat over top. The look is finished off with a pair of black gloves, and brown loafer-like shoes.

Nai (voiced in Japanese by Hiro Shimono and in English by Sean Michael Teague) is one of the main characters in the anime/manga Karneval.

He is a very quiet and innocent person, and tends to be overly dependent and reliant on those around him. Nai has another side to his story that isn’t revealed until later on.

He has fluffy white hair that tufts out into lavender spikes on the sides and has reddish orange eyes. He wears a loose collared off-white long sleeved shirt with indigo shorts, and white heeled shoes with gold buckles, along with a cuff he wears on his wrist.

Perry (played by Jeffrey Pierce who portrayed Tommy in the original video game) is a character from HBO’s The Last of Us.  He is Kathleen‘s second in command in the uprising against Fedra in Kansas City.  Perry has long grey hair and a well-kept beard, and dresses in paramilitary garb, making him a perfectly suited lieutenant as Kathleen searches for Henry.  Recreating Perry’s look will require you to stock up on your tactical supplies.  Perry wears black pants and a well-worn green shirt, over which he dons a black tactical vest and belt.  He also wears heavy-duty boots and black gloves.

Elmer Fudd is an accident-prone hunter from the original Looney Tunes show.  He is an enemy of Bugs Bunny, determined to track down the rascally rodent during rabbit season, but ultimately, Bugs outsmarts him every time.  Elmer’s outfit has had some tweaks over the years, but his overall aesthetic remains the same:  a brown hunting outfit including a hat with red detailing, brown shoes, and a rifle perfect for taking down pesky rabbits.  To recreate his look, you can use some red fabric paint on the inside of your hat’s earflaps.
