Description:

This one had to be posted first. Seriously, the amount of work he put in with his make-up job was amazing. 5 hours work, we were told.

It's not funny, but it is... just wow...

Although the reactions to his make-up was brilliant. Double takes, super shocked expressions, some shrieking...

I was on one side of an exceptionally crowded lobby and I pushed my way through just so I could talk to him. Then proceeded to gush at how brilliant his make-up was and ask how he did and how long it took.

Fangirl squeeing took place as well.

Thus making a very out of character Riddler.

Riddler? What happened to the Justice League group? =)

Young Justice group and that's a future group planned; Arkham City Riddler was what I cosplayed for April as there was an Arkham Asylum/City group :3

Although, we have a Batman of the Future rather than an Arkham City Bats.

Is it gay of me to be more impressed with his suit?

nope, I don't really see how that makeup took 5 hours, but the suit looks like it could've taken that long.

My camera is shit. In person, you can see that there are flaking skin pieces, and a lot of details. He had the teeth effect, his ear was also all "acid burned" off and was generally amazing. Also, make-up takes a long time. Me applying stubble and making myself look weathered took 2 and a half hours, and that's really simple make-up

Suit wise, he used a pre-made Two-Face suit which he patiently burnt and mutated. I didn't ask how long that took, but it was made from a material which is fire resistant, so took a long time to do.

It takes about 5 days to make a fully lined suit. (Sorry, I made a suit myself for this convention as I was Riddler) EDIT: and it's actually quite easy to do

I knew it when I saw it that this had to be Nixie.

What gave it away?

I need to submit more, but I'm trying to locate really cool/funny ones... I didn't take a lot of photos due to being in a Gyarados.

The fact that it was at a con was the giveaway.

You never know, could of been a random Two-Face in a hotel.

Just cause...

The simplest explanation is likely the most correct.

He could have been taking a plane somewhere.

Dressed as Two-Face cause he could... XD

Or he could have been going to The Gadget Show which was on the same time XDXD

It matters not what he could have been, or what he was doing in the time surrounding the moment this picture was taken.

I gathered information that informed me that you had been at a convention. Further, I gathered more data to tell me you were the Joker. I then observed the background appears to be a convention. The subject is two-face, who is another Batman villain. Thus, you being involved in some way is relevant. Seeing you had posted the picture, it's a valid assumption to make that you were present at this in particular.

I was not The Joker, I was The Riddler!

One is green with purple bits, the other purple with green bits! Totally different! I'm flabbergasted at your mistake, sir!

XDXD

I know the difference, but I commonly say the wrong name.

Which happens a lot with those two, since the only real differences are the 'make-up' and mental stability.
