No one believed that the Roger Rabbit head was handmade! What drunk adult doesn't love running into one of their favorite childhood cartoon characters! We got to play the role, Marty had his "p-p-p-p-p-p-p-pleeeeeaaasssseee!!!" down, and several times I got asked "what do you see in that guy?" and I got to respond with "he makes me laugh." We couldn't have had more fun playing out these parts and seeing how excited everyone was to see us! We literally had people yelling at us "Roger Rabbit WAIT!!!!", and chasing us down to get a photo! We had a blast in these costumes, and were being stopped all night to take pictures. But finding the right materials, and my favorite costume making tool - a hot glue gun, I was on a roll! There were several moments of "I don't know how I'm going to make this work" but with enough time and trial and error it started coming together better then I could have imagined! This was my first attempt at making a large 3 dimensional cartoon head. The head was by far the most difficult part. I've been told by friends before that I would make a perfect Jessica Rabbit, so this year I decided to go with it, but who is Jessica without her Roger Rabbit?! Halloween is by far my favorite day of the year, and I always go all out on my costumes, although this year my husband Marty was wearing my masterpiece! Don't get me wrong, everyone still loved Jessica, but I think it may have been for my boobs more then my costume, ha ha! Everything on both of our costumes was completely handmade from Jessica's dress to Roger's outfit and head (except for Jessica's purple gloves, and Roger's white shirt) and probably took around 50 hours to complete.
