So this weekend, my wife and I are heading to our friend's annual Halloween party. I decided to go as Harry Dresden, but I can't just go with a coat and staff. Luckily, my wife has a scale model of a skull. I'm thinking of rigging up a lighting system so Bob can have his eyes :D

I love Halloween.

Yay for Bob! Make sure you take a trashy novel for him.

You could also throw on a charm braclet and maybe find some sort of fake deformed hand.....

I have a black glove for that :D
Here's (http://twitpic.com/nbxs6) Bob v 1.0. I don't know if it'll be the final yet. It depends on whether I can figure out a better way to do the lights.

*has no idea what this is all about, but is none the less entertained by a skull with eye lights*

Then you'll love the Dresden Files. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dresden_Files)

There's some sample chapters from each novel on Jim Butcher's website:

Hmm... looks good! I always picture Bob with the eyesockets glowing though. Hmm... maybe line them with a bit of aluminum foil to throw the light around more?

D'y think you could get your wife to dress up as Bianca?

[Nurian]

Actually, I think I can get her to dress up as Lara.
I'll try the foil idea.

Bob 2.0 (http://twitpic.com/ncilt) sans foil (I have none :( ).

Depending on what kind of lights you're using, and how much heat they throw off, maybe try some colored fabric or tissue paper to make them colors? Red is pretty traditional for glowing eye sockets. Though I think green would probably look pretty cool too.

Woo, awesome costume choice! <3
