Notes and more notes:
1. Yes, that's me. If I look confused, it's because I usually wear glasses and can't actually see the camera. If I look blurry, it's because my wife was laughing at my attempts to strike a manly pose.
2. The clothes were basically stuff I had laying around (old suspenders from a suit, dress shirt, tan Wranglers, work boots).
3. The coat is one of <a href="http://reps.scullyleather.com/catalog/item.asp?BRN=WAH&DIV=MEN&CAT=CO&SEA=F0&BDY=564589&RMC=&BDA=564589&page=0"these</a>, in walnut. It's actually ankle length, but a little creative sewing brought it up to the knee. Canvas, not leather. It's actually quite warm, which is good, because Portland isn't.
4. I am aware there is no gun in the holster. On the advice of my brother (a cop), I ain't going to bring one outside. Apparently even a replica firearm out in public says less "Firefly" and more "robbing a liquor store."

We actually managed to find 8 people, so we've got the whole crew (except Book), including the small, Irish girl going as Zoe. More pics forthcoming as I beat up my digital camera and make it upload.

very nice. Perhaps scaling the pics down would be grand. Just a suggestion for better viewing.

Mighty fine costume you got there, MG...loads better than my "poor and grungy university student" costume I wore;)
