3D Printing Cliché Panorama: Halloween Costumes for Weekend Parties

Here comes that haunted time of the year again. It's Thursday night, you are almost ready for your big Halloween weekend parties and drunken horsing around when you realize a most crucial flaw in your plan: You forgot about a costume.

If you ended up on this blog, you were either directed by the huge amount of cliché words brought up from google trends or you are asking yourself: How can I Halloween parteeee without a costume?

If you are like me and to try to resolve one problem you end up creating a chain of other problems, I have your solution, Or problem, Or..,  errrr… let’s call It a solution... You will 3D print your costume!!! There's nothing more practical!

Instead of going to the store on the next block, you can: Buy a 3D printer, the supplies, download the models and get your own unique costume, how simple and creative right?

Right! Here is Mr. T face of approval to you decision:



And you should Mr. T, you should.

Since people have started 3D printing they have seen the amazing possibilities of making their own customized props and outfits, leading to a terrible amount of anime enthusiasts wasting scarce resources on ridiculous cosplay costumes but also transformed many blogs in factories of cool 3d models.

You can easily download these to your computer and let a 3D printer software do the magic, hell you can even fold some papers from a regular printer like this kid:



 The point is, if you do not find a costume that you like you can create one.

One interesting source for Halloween ideas is 3Dprint.com.  From here you can get many different masks, costumes and other items. They also held a 3D printed Halloween costume contest.  Maybe it will feature the face of the Republican debate star Donald Trump, your favorite sex scandal suspect World Series player or even your own Darth Vader mask from Star Wars (yes this is in the top google trends).

So instead of wasting your time making a mess of your house with pumpkin carving, risking a sudden heart attack in a haunted house or facing the diabolic middle school children pulling up trick-or-treats, go to that really far away electronics store that might have a 3D printer and never spend your money on costumes again. Just on the very expensive material used for printing!

I would give you some more sites but I do not want to spoil your fun when searching them by yourself on google! Good luck!
