Silicon Val : Danger Girl
Posted on Sep 2, 2001 in Portfolio
Inspiration
While looking for an easy hall costume to create, Lindze mentioned that she and her friends were wearing their Danger Girl costumes again. She pointed out that I looked alot like Silicon Valerie at the time. Knowing I could pull this costume together pretty quickly, I went for it.
Creation
The hair and glasses are my normal everyday style. Store bought pieces are the boots, camo pants, military webbing belt, white t-shirt, vest and backpack. I placed a cardboard box inside the backpack to fill it out. I found an old headset and ran its wiring to the backpack. I machine embroidered Silicon Val’s name onto the name tag on the vest. The strap-on leg computer system was created from an old broken keyboard, craft foam, vinyl and velcro. The keyboard actually spells out Danger Girl.
