Robbie is a human teenager who wears a black leather jacket layered over a white hoodie (despite living in Los Angeles) and black earlobe plugs. To avoid having to do anything with my hair, I'll be doing him in the scenes where his head is bandaged and he is possessed by his Evil Uncle Eli Morrow.
Me being a Lazy Cosplayer TM, I have chosen for my FIRST EVER cosplay of an actual character to use clothing items I actually own, and other items I got on sale at Ross.
Purchases: Very light gray zip-up hoodie, 70% off All-New Ghost Rider T-shirt purchased last year, the item that got me into this miniscule fandom in the first place, and also totally something Robbie would wear Shitty Men's black polyurethane motorcycle jacket Black plastic spoons Eight magnetic stick-on earrings from Claire's Dollar store black nail polish
I made ear lobe plugs by cutting the bowls of plastic spoons into small rounds and gluing magnets from the Claire's earrings to the back, spread out into a triangle. I made the back by gluing doubled-up magnets to triangular sections cut from a plastic knife. To make the magnets less conspicuous from odd angles, I painted them with nail polish on the front piece. They actually look pretty good on, if you happen to have free earlobes, which I do. They compress the earlobes enough so the illusion is good from a distance.
The motorcycle jacket was baggy and binding at the same time, plus it came with elastic knit cuffs and bottom trim I didn't need. I've got binder clips all over it, I'm putting gussets in the sleeves, and I'm hemming all the seams with the glue.
In summary, everything is magnetized or covered in glue, send help.
