Hadn't really considered it since I don't have the full flamethrower finished yet, but I suppose I could!

Great photos! It’s as awesome meeting you at PRGE! Cool to see your costume come together so well.Thought I’d share how my costume came together across a couple of different “photo shoots” (me, my mother in law, or my wife taking iPhone pictures of me.) I decided to add some “snow” to the costume, and experimented with it in my beard and mustache as well. This year I’ll be skipping any weapon props because I blew my budget already, but I’m quite happy with how it’s all come together. The safety goggles, by the way, look a little narrow. That’s because they belong to my 5 year old.
I ended up getting one of forcebewitya’s hats without realizing it was him (bought it on Etsy), then the first day I wore the full costume, at PRGE 2023, he ended up being there so we got a chance to meet. He tapped me on my shoulder and said “I made your hat!” Awesome surprise.
Gonna do a little distressing to the jacket but this is essentially finished, at least for 2023.View attachment 1755509View attachment 1755510View attachment 1755511View attachment 1755512

Oh yeah! I caught this yesterday. I'm actually going to tweak my hat now that I've got close ups of the band. My current band is very close, but the maker is going to tweak the design.
