We've decided to dress up as zombies as you do, and last year there were some really original and authentic costumes, complete with prosthetic wounds and contact lenses, so I decided to have a costume that really stands out this year. I was thinking zombie batman, or zombie punk, but it wouldn't be as cool, and so I thought "Hey, wouldn't it be cool to be a zombie joker, with a decaying smile and creepy contacts?", and so, that is what I have chosen to do.
The Look
I want my costume to be based around the original joker-ish, or preferable the Batman: Arkham Asylum one as I found him scariest, also cause Mark Hamill is a legend:
The slicked back or tousled green hair, completely pallid skin, darkened eyes and big red smile (without being too much like Heath Ledger's Joker) is what I'm aiming for. I also want to make it zombified obviously, so I should possible make the face a little dirtier or use some form of liquid latex to make the lips seem decayed and/or bloody.
I've already hunted down the contact lenses I think I should use: http://www.coloured-contact-lens.co.uk/product/zombie_eye_catchers/ as these will add to the zombie look.
I'll hopefully, progressively update this and I hope to carry this out to the full. Discuss and such. Please don't shit this thread up though.
