Carbon Costume

In Mortal Kombat 1, Johnny Cage is a struggling but cocky action star who joins Shang Tsung’s fighting tournament. He arrives and even fights wearing formal dress clothes. However the character also gets into a more outfit to fight in, and even a Jean Claude Van Damme skin voiced by man himself. Appropriate since way back in 1992, Cage’s design was originally inspired by the Muscles from Brussels.

The Twins (voiced by Anita Pudikova) are ballerina robots created as bodyguards for Dmitry Sechenov in the video game Atomic Heart.  Known as only Left and Right, the humanoid Twins were created with the most advanced technology available, making them as deadly as they are lovely.  The twins have smooth silver faces and lithe bodies.  To recreate their look, you can start with a full head-to-toe metallic silver bodysuit and layer a black leotard overtop.  If you don’t have hair long enough to style as a braided crown, use a wig, but either way, you’ll want to go heavy on the gold hairspray to get as close to the static metal hair look as possible.  Depending on which Twin you choose to play, you may also need a gold cropped jacket.  Lastly, add a red star sticker to the center of your expressionless forehead and, if you’re feeling particularly ambitious, you can also add gold details to your elbows, wrists, knees, and feet with some fabric paint.
