mad scientist

[alexmiller]

i was going to be a mad scientist for halloween to go along with a prop i am making. i bought a lab coat and some white hair spray but i would like to do more with the costume to make it a little more scary


ANY IDEAS
I would appreciate it

alexmiller...well, mad scientists always have fly-away hair, so stick it all up straight, and they have dark circles under their eyes from late nights in the lab, and depending on what kinds of experiments they are doing, maybe a little...shall we say "gore"...on the front of the lab coat, and maybe some around the mouth, again, depending on the sorts of experiments they are doing...oh, and big rubber gloves, black, maybe? Big bushy eyebrows to match the big bushy hair would be a nice touch...perhaps some big round coke-bottle glasses? A name tag on the lab coat would be cool..."Dr. Demento"...or some such name...in any case HAVE FUN!!

Maybe also rubber boots.....and some light powdery makeup to make your face look more "dead" and creepy. Hooch is right about the fly away hair...make sure it stands up and is wild looking (like you were just electricuted). They also sell those goggles/glasses with a light on them for surgeries...that some mad scientists wear on their foreheads. Perhaps even some tape inbetween the glasses.

You could even get some props like a bloody finger to stick out of the pocket on the front. Hope you have fun with it!
