Silent Hill nurses

Photo by Allison Rose. Costumes by myself and Jenny Barclay. I am the one in the front, Jenny in back.

Allison got quite alot of comments when she posted this same picture, so to save some of the trouble: The costumes were made from store bought hats, shoes, and dresses that we altered and then covered in lots of nice goopy latex and babypowder. the masks were more complicated: We made life casts of our faces, then sculpted our masks over them in clay, and then made a mold of the sculpt and cast it in silicone rubber and painted them. they pull on like regular masks and snap up in the back. the veins were airbrushed on us the day of wearing the costumes, which we wore at Dragoncon 2006.
The pictures were taken in a parking garage next to the con and all post photo treatments were done by Allison.

Still dont believe me that we made them? Here is an inprogress pic of our head sculpts:
