Yes well time is also running short and I personally would want to make a costume like that as good as I could.

I look forward to seeing it, when you get around to it.

I'm planning on it for the playa. Or some sort of similar derivation. It's going to be tough to replicate that rubbery skin, unless I can find a source for foam rubber. Maybe liquid laytex would work better. Who around here knows about this stuff?

I'd avoid the liquid latex unless you enjoy waxing......
Its can be painfull to remove - but you get the bonus of really soft skin

Hey, RG......vinyl comes in all sorts of cool prints and textures nowadays, if that helps your costume cause at all. Hancock Fabrics also has foam.

ahh...that's better. now that mojito sounds like a fine idea. right after this slug o' jameson left over in my flask...

It's a little amusing that he thinks he needs to tell us how to make a mojito. Much less pronounce it. Heehee.

Long as you're making, them tish...howzabout one for me? Crush the mint up a little more than usual, if you would.
