Sneaky Linky Halloweeennnie

The Link costume I've been making is not done, but it is wearable. I still have small details to add to it. My original plan to get all the fine details done was Halloween, but due to a series of unfortunate events, that couldn't happen. I am happy with the responses we are getting so far. We got rained on so, everything isn't as nice as id like them to be in these pictures.
We are in the process of scheduling a juicy photo shoot with a professional photographer for the costume.
I guess this could also be considered a sneak peak.

I will also be uploading pictures of the nitty gritty kind for all the fine details when I have them all completed.

Please post critique and comments. I'd love to hear what you guys have to say!

Where art thou minion?

So me and Danish finally got around to making our Despicable Me Minion goggles. We are using them for our halloween costumes, which I will be updating as we go. Im sooooo EXCITED to finally wear them. 
We used 2" pvc, vinyl bumpers, wire to connect the two and make them flexible, epoxy, crazy glue, some rust stop oil based paint, straps, and some strap adjustors, sand paper, weather stripping (so it doesnt hurt our faces). Every single item that I used here was found in a local mom and pop hardware store.I would really like to ad some lenses that would make my eyes look huge, but I have not found anything that I could see through. =(
The minions have a silver clasp on the side of them (what they would use to tighten them) so I just put come quick connectors on the side of them.
 I guess we did a pretty good job ad them seeing that I look preeetyyyy rediculous wearing them. The two "googles" are supposed to be connected, but seeing as I have a nose, thats kinda impossible.
