How to make a Dead Skate Boarder Halloween Costume

For his costume my 10 year old son wanted to be a skateboarder. We decided to make it a bit more interesting and make it scary!
We put a little ghoulish makeup on and turned him into a DEAD SKATEBOARDER. He had lots of compliments on this easy costume.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• skateboard clothes (shorts, light colored shirt)
• white face makeup
• black marker for "fake stitches"
• lots of fake red blood
• black makeup for effect (under the eyes)
• skateboard

1. 
    
   blood and gore, gnarly!

   Dress like a skateboarder.
   Tousle hair.

2. 
    
   The Dead Skateboarder prepares to trick or treat!

   put white face makeup on face. This base makeup absorbs into the skin and leaves a slightly pale effect.
   put black makeup under eyes for ghoulish effect.
   put black "stitch" marks on neck (the head was cut off and sewn back on) gnarly!
   put lots of red fake blood on neck wound and around lips.

3. Grab your skateboard and go.

Tips & Warnings

• wear a light colored shirt so it can be seen at night.
• bring a bag to carry your skateboard in if it gets heavy.
• Be careful, don't skateboard in the dark!
• watch out for makeup in the eyes, it stings.
