Halloween Wizard
Almost missed it this year…but not quite
Here’s my submission for @Marica0701 ‘s costume contest!
Last year I was rocking the wastelander look with my Fallout costume
This year I thought I’d throw together something a little more fantasy based (been listening to the Lord of The Rings a little too much I think…shouted ‘Elbereth!’ on the top of a mountain the other day
) So look below to see the Blue Wizard, with real sword!And yes I am aware I look rather silly lol
Perfect Rainbow timing
…errm I mean powerful elemental magics!
A few layers, low dramatic sunlight and a good breeze and anything looks good
but if you happen to have a real sword and large leather belt that also helps.
Yonder lies Mordor and the dark lord! we must ride to great peril at once!
If only my staff was a bit longer
but other than that this shot is my fave 
Oh dear -_- you always get one poser on these adventures.
Alright thats all the shots I managed to take before my toes got too cold…one should never fight peril in open toed sandles…in winter.

@megabyyteAnd the category I am aiming for is of course: Handmade or Original Idea…it’s not that original Wizards are age old
but it’s all hand made…more accurately just random stuff i threw together that looks fantasy-ish

You look like you belong in one of those fantasy epic movies, Bede. Your costume looks great. Good luck! Hope you win.
You’re the best I have seen.
You look great, and the background setting is perfect!!
I think this looks really awesome
So, you’re my first Handmade/Original entry. haha
Thanks for entering!
you’re amazing.
I liked your costume a lot! Very original!
Pretty cool.
Whoa, very cool and creative.
In the first picture, I thought you were holding some kind of branched staff.
I love your wizard costume! *swoon*
This is another great entry.
I like it! Did you make the outfit yourself?
Awesome!
good luck. looks terrific
Cool
AWESOME ! And love the LOTR references ! Have you heard about the Hobbit AND The Silmarillion ?
@Babieboo_Annie - Haha thanks
I do belong in one of those…it would be VERY cool
@BookographyReviews - Aw thank you
Mines not as good as some of the more real costumes though.
@EmilyandAtticus - Lol yeah the landscape adds quite a bit to it
Would you accept a hug from a Wizard aswell?
@Marica0701 - Gives me a pretty good chance of winning my category then
haha
I like this contest thanks for running it!
@LKJSlain - :D thank you Lisa, right back at ya!
@Mrs_FoodLover - Thank you, i as rather impressed by how it turned out too to be honest
@Unstoppable_Inner_Strength - Haha yeah ‘Cool’ but only in nerds circles…or D&D fans
@uru_n_imi - Oh yeah
I should have found a more gnarled stick really.
Thank you!
@firetyger -
aww thanks, no where near as awesome as yours was, but fun to do 
@TheTheologiansCafe - Thanks
@loneshadow_wolf - Yep…well It’s various layers made of fantasy-ish looking clothes, so a poncho, a cardigan, a blanket and some handy leather belts…and then the sword which is my brothers
@ctaretz - Thanks, and for the add!
@bonmots - Thank you
@Shining_Garnet - Hehe
@Want2FitIn2Fat2Fit - I’ve heard of them both, but only listened to the Hobbit and LOTR. I had the abridged versions on tape for years and loved them, thne watched the movies and now finally have gotten almost all the way through an un-abridged Lotr reading on tape…OMG the original is soooooo much more amazing than any abridgement
Not gotten to the Silmarillion atall yet though.
@SaintBlue1131 - I’d prefer the wizard hug!!
Oh wow, I love your costume. :3 Creeping to see the rest of your photos. lol
@PorcelainDoll_xo - lol my albums are a mess, I really need to sort them out and try to figure out the organization system on Xanga :/
Thanks for the compliment
That could be the cover of a fantasy book
King Bedethur!
