Description Why, I am saying hello to myself. My favourite version of the costume, without the red cape.

My Plague Doctor based, with kind permission, on the artworks of `hibbary
Artworks for basis;
The Grand Doctor
Eve of the first snow
Stormy Skies


The beak is poplar wood painted and finished. The mask is is leather, straps, and screws. The rudimentary goggles are leather and caps/covers from a rifle sight!
Yeah, they fogged over sometimes, but I could actually see and breath in this costume.
The frock was a historical pattern Frocky and I selected.
I am wearing one (of a pair) Steampunk Shock Gauntlet made by =Winneganfake that are actually Frocky's. See them here. And sadly, I couldn't fit my palm through the palm-strap, my hands are much larger than Frockys, but I wrapped a watch around it for a nice effect. The work is to beautiful not to use!
And no, I did not buy a black wig or dye my hair, so I used my real hair. Hope it's not to out of character.

Please look through my Costumes and props for more photos of this. And pop by =FrockTarts for more of her pics of this and her works.
Much thanks to Frocky for her hard work and my mum for helping with my mask!

Thanks! I like the effect/contrast of the red cape, but I too prefer not having in these pictures, the coat looks effective on it's own.

Good, me too! I think both work well, but I like the simple outfit myself.
