  That's very cool! (I was at a Halloween themed club last night: it's fair to say that, even though SPECTRE is only just out, the principals' costumes in the Day of the Dead sequence had an influence on some people's choice of party wear for the big night. There was a noticeable upsurge in skull masks and skeleton body suits this year, amidst the usual vampire and zombie costumes!)

  Critics and material I don't need. I haven't changed my act in 53 years.

  Looks great indeed. Thought about doing the same but couldn't find a decent hat and, above all, mask.

  Glad you guys like it! Not perfect but it worked in a pinch. I'll take some photo's when I get home from work and post em up! I have a fairly reliable local costume shop that had a wide assortment of Day of the Dead masks and this one was closest to the trailer mask. The tricky part was getting a hat that fit around the width of the mask.

  For the time being, here is a higher res version of the above pic. I'll take a better quality photo of the mask soon.

  Here's a few pictures of the mask up close. It's essentially made of papier-mâché which made it a bit rough to breathe in and I was constantly lifting it up so I could sip on drinks. ) Very inexpensive though. And it was by far the closest to the screen version (although still quite a ways off).
