When Geeks Lose Touch with Reality . . . Something like this happens: The guy made his own TRON outfit. You can read the whole sordid tale on the guy's website, where he meticulously documented every step of the costume's creation.Jay shows that he's in it to win it when he recounts his motivations for creating the perfect TRON outfit. "I saw lots of TRON costumes on the net, and wasn't satisfied with any of them. The biggest deficiency was that none of them attempted to capture the green tint of the characters' outfits in the computer world. Yes, I know that was added in the digital animation process, but, still, a white costume just doesn't look right. Many of them also used black for the circuit patterns, one more step away from the costumes the viewer saw in the movie. I decided I could do better, at least to my own way of thinking. This is not a slam on those who have gone before by any means, just an observation that I could resolve what I saw as deficiencies." Way to go, Jay! That's the kinds "can do" American spirit that put a man on the moon and cheese in a can. As fantastic as this project was, I do have one word of advice for Jay: wear a cup. I know it takes balls to make a costume like this, but we don't need to see his. posted by Brendan | 3:08 PM | permanent link |
