Darth Maul has left the building.

FinalPicture him with a light saber in his hand, we found one at Target yesterday afternoon. He abandoned the horns because he’d tried to stick them on with hair gel which didn’t dry and there wasn’t time for the eyelash adhesive which worked perfectly in the test run. The face paint is all wrong because he’d gone with four horns and there wasn’t one in the center of his forehead so I had to make stuff up but I think it still looks very Sithly. Last night we added beltloops to his pants so he could hang stuff from his belt. I made a couple little black drawstring bags for holding little things. We gave his head a fresh buzz last night as close as I could get it and you really can’t see the stubble through the paint but the painting did take over 90 minutes this morning. Costume day is today, not sure why they aren’t having it tomorrow but we were ready.
