Death Eater Costuming Question

Aug 26, 2012 11:25

So I've been contemplating putting together a Death Eater costume, but I'm awful frustrated at the lack of suitable costume pieces for sale. Unfortunately I can't sew even if you had a gun to my head and forced me to, so making it myself is out of the question. Commissioning someone else to do it for me is an option, but I'm not even 100% sure yet what I want. I don't just wanna throw on a random black cape, put the Dark Mark tattoo on my arm, and call it a day. I want something that looks good and maybe a little different from the standard Death Eater cosplays.

I'm also debating whether I really want to go for the movie!Death Eater look, with their Ku Klux Klan-esque hats/hoods. I also didn't love the masks in the films. I kind of want something a little more rustic/natural looking. The only thing I've found so far that might work is this. I definitely don't just want a typical "goth" look, which I feel is a trap some Death Eater costumes fall into. My Google searches aren't turning up a whole lot, so I'm wondering if anyone here has cosplayed as a Death Eater, and if so, if you can point me in the right direction or give me some tips.
