Carbon Costume

Edward Teach, better known as Blackbeard, is a main character in HBO Max’s Our Flag Means Death. Show producer Taika Waititi, who also directed Thor: Ragnarok and What We Do In The Shadows, stars in this role. Inspired by the legendary pirate, he expresses boredom with his bloodthirsty life, and wishes to abandon the title. After rescuing Stede Bonnet from death, he takes a keen interest in his life aboard the Revenge. He originally plots to steal his identity and kill Stede, but the two develop a close friendship that blossoms into romance. As his name suggests, he wears all black. Use the Sharpie to darken the mustache and roots of the beard. Use a pair of scissors to cut at the shoulder on one side of the long sleeve shirt.

Libby Folfax is a character in the Nickelodeon show, Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius. While she’s often the voice of reason in class, her singing voice is off-key. She is the best friend of Cindy Vortex, and often shares the same opinion. When Libby helps battle mummies in Egypt by posing as an ancient queen, who happened to be her identical ancestor, she keeps her hair in dreadlocks. She also gets an outfit change from a casual dress to a striped sweater and jeans.

Old Coot (voiced by Ryan Miller) is the main character in The Old Coot Show, a YouTube show that follows Old Coot and his son on a series of brief wacky adventures.  To recreate this simple look, you’ll want to flesh-colored zentai suit to evoke the eyeless design of the character, as well as a grey beard to wear over that.  You can forgo the cross and rope accessories that come with the brown monk’s robe, leaving you with just the hooded cloak necessary for the costume.

Makoto Kino (voiced by Emi Shinohara and Amanda Céline Miller) is a Sailor Guardian in the anime and manga series Sailor Moon.  Known as Sailor Jupiter when in her Sailor form, Makoto is an orphan, having lost her parents in a plane crash.  She is tomboyish and loves cooking.  Makoto has long brown hair that she wears in a ponytail.  Her school uniform consists of a khaki skirt and matching blouse.  Finding an exact match can be tough, but you can recreate the look with a similarly colored sailor sweatshirt (though you may want to pin the rabbit ears on the hood out of sight).  When fighting evil by moonlight with Sailor Moon and the rest of the Guardians, Sailor Jupiter’s costume is dark green with matching boots.  In both her civilian and Sailor forms, she wears pink rosebud earrings and a green hair tie in her hair.

Cindy Vortex is a character in the Nickelodeon show, Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius. Bossy and stubborn, she despises Jimmy Neutron for being smarter than her, and thus the smartest kid in class. They compete over pretty much everything, and tease or insult each other at every turn. Although Cindy will never admit that she harbors a crush on the boy genius. Her best friend is Libby Fairfax.

Rachel T. McKenzie (voiced by Rachael MacFarlane), better known as Numbuh 362 is a recurring character on the Cartoon Network series Codename: Kids Next Door.  As the Supreme Leader of the KND organization, Numbuh 362 is serious but fair, always concerned for the well-being of the operatives under her command before she retires and Numbuh 5 takes over at Supreme Leader.  Numbuh 362 has blonde hair and wears a colander with two blue sabers and an orange decal with her designated number on it as a hat.  Her uniform consists of a teal jumpsuit and orange sweater, with grey sandals.  To recreate Numbuh 362’s hat, cut craft foam pieces to look like her number plate and sabers before gluing them to a grey colander.  A tiger stripe sweatshirt or plain orange pullover can help evoke her costume look depending on your preference.

Augustus Porter (voiced by Isaac Ryan Brown) is a witch on the Disney Channel series The Owl House.  He is close friends with Luz Noceda and Willow Park.  Gus has a dramatic flair, which serves his track as an illusionist.  He is excitable and enthusiastic. When recreating Gus’ look, you’ll want to focus on either his more casual appearance or his Hexside uniform, though both rely on layering different pieces with a medieval feel to them.

Henrietta von Marzipan (voiced by Candi Milo) is a recurring antagonist from the Cartoon Network show Codename: Kids Next Door.  Henrietta appears as Heinrich for most of the episodes she is in.  Henrietta was once Numbuh 5‘s best friend before the incident that transformed her into Heinrich.  Henrietta wears army green pants and sturdy boots, with brown gloves, vest, and safari hat.  Her blonde hair is worn in braided pigtails and she dons a monocle over her left eye.
