Halloween Costume Deal!
October 2nd, 2008
In order to help pay for the epic wedding of myself to the lovely and talented J.R. Blackwell, I have decided to take on 1 Halloween costume commission this year.
That’s right, for the low, low prices of $200 one person can look as awesome as I do come Halloween.
The first person to email me and pay $200 in advance will get a costume whatever they want* custom made head to toe—props included—done to their specifications. Want to be a pirate? I can do that. An airship pirate? No problem. An airship pirate superhero? Consider it done.
I have an extensive portfolio, should you want to peruse it.
But don’t spend too long looking! This offer is limited to the first person who pays! Act now!
AND THE DEAL IS OVER! Sorry if you missed your chance, but first come, first serve!
Also, check out JR Blackwell’s–she who took the awesome above photo— Alternate 365 Photo sale!
*Within reason. Some costumes will not be able to completed in the time before Halloween. A rule of thumb: if it has futuristic armor, it’ll take too long.

Well sadly I didn’t see the contest until it was too late, but generally how much do you charge for costumes, sort of based on your portfolio?

The starting price for a full costume is $300, which increases depending on difficulty and materials. You got something in mind?
