Wow! This is probably the most accurate Rorschach costume I've ever seen! Bravo, bravo!

Really? Awesome!

I'm also an angry short guy, so I guess that's pretty accurate too.

Wait, seriously? That makes you even MORE awesome!
Just curious, how did you manage to get your trenchcoat that color/texture? It looks leathery and amazing! Most of the Rorschach costumes I've seen have the trenchcoat all wrong, sadly. Yours is perfect, though! And so is your fedora and scarf and mask and, like, everything, hahah. Probably your pants and shoes, too. :]

Opergeist In reply to manicouch [2009-06-06 02:51:14 +0000 UTC]

I'm not a redhead though..

The coat was originally black, which was then bleached out to near white and overdyed back to brown.
I then distressed it appropriately and hand painted fabric paint and wax onto it to get that leather-y texture.

I may add some bloodstains for good measure.

My pants are actually maroon/purple with a tan pinstripe, which looks to be canon with the comic and movie. Those were a nice thrift store find.
