My first was my worst for medieval re-enactment.

Wasn't toooooooo bad since I had lucked out with buying some medieval trousers and doublet off of ebay, but made my own shoes from some wooden soled sandals bought for £7, carpet tacks and some leather from an old coat i'd bought in a charity shop.

So pround of them though I can't bear to throw them away!

My first ever LRP, I took sheets of cardboard, covered them in Gaffa then cut them into strips which I laced together to look like oriental armour. The big day came and it pissed down, by the time I'd walked from the car to the assembly point the armour was turning to pulp- so i took it off and put it in the litter bin in the car park.

Orange Duvet cover made into a tabard complete with poppers. Didn't remove them as I had no idea how sad I looked.

Over robe had shoulder pads, similiarly made from a bed sheet...

Almost definitely my original red cross on a white sheet with a head hole cut into it that I worse sooooo many times.  I remember playing an assassin and wearing that as a costume.  To be fair, no-one thought I was an assassin.

When I was 18 and plying a "drow knight". Armour made from silver cloth (using the excuse it was "lacemaile" and a helm made from cardboard (but I was actually quite proud of that since after spraying it looked quite convincing). After that costume I vowed never to paint my face black... and now I play a black orc. D'oh!

A friend of mine once persuaded me (and two others) to go to a party with her as the tin-man, the cowardly lion, and the scarecrow. I made a tin-man costume out of cardboard boxes with silver foil glued over them.
I was reminded of this yesterday, when another friend claimed to have found the photos.

I think it's rather unsporting that the people with the cameras are also frequently the only ones who are sober.

Cloak - Green curtain with white tippex runes drawn on it and held together with an old brooch from a charity shop

Tabard - Sheet folded in half with drawn-on stitching

Trousers - Lace up sided, fake leather trousers.

I hang my head in shame
