Go to a fabric store.. pick up a big red piece of cloth (cape), a small blue one and cut eyeholes (Mask), then just find some white clothes that look like they match..

I've seen pictures pozee - we all know you've got the legs for it!Ok then... *sigh*For the bracers how about lycra? Prolly not a good idea if you are gonna twirl the fire, as it could lead to burning and melting and pain etc. Ideally some of NYC's leather bracers would be cool in blue (white is too lady-like, and you don't want all red.) Then you could go for some red pants - pref. big fat corduroy pants (I love red cords!) And a white headband.

Sorry Pozee, lots of work on. If you give me more notice next time. or something.------------------C@ntusIn the past, the fools would pay, to see the freaks of the day. The contradictions of the norm. The bizarre, the wonderful and deformed.No need for the tents and the cages now. The wool is over our eyes. In front the TV circus - a freakshow in disguise.
