It was a smallish venue called Carnival of Stars; basically just a belly dancing show with a costume contest in the middle.

This was our entry:




The victim had a hot date, so he wasn't able to accept the award with us.

Hi there,,,I am a Johnny Depp impersonater,,check out my web site..www.myspace.com/deppalike.

have done most of his costumes now,,my personal fave is Ichabod Crane (totally obsessed with the movie)

Although alot of people would vote for my Sweeney or Cpt jack

Though I thoroughly enjoyed playing Agent Sands on Halloween this year, I still felt oddly naked without my Willy Wonka accoutrements. Still, when I went with Scabrous Vermicelli (a leather-armored dragon), and DeathWolf (a werewolf) to the local grocery store, I got a really disgusted look from a lady at the check out counter. So it was all worth it.

I'm a fangirl, so I posted my two Depp costumes to DeppImpact.com. This is one of the responses:

In your Willie-outfit you look just as slender and elegant as Johnny does.
Uncanny.
Sands is very convincingly bad-ass-y too.
You really got this "something" that makes off-beat characters work.


Kind of a neat compliment.

Here's the full effect of the makeup.  Good god, I love Halloween.
 

I'm terrible at the self-timer, as it turns out. When I got into position, the picture was either too blurry, or my head was cut off.

So I did the next best thing to mirror pictures: I held the camera at arm's length and hoped for the best. These are preliminary shots. When I wear this costume at WonderCon (and Halloween Parties), I will dye my hair black and add the eye makeup so that my eyes won't be visible behind the shades.

Enjoy.

I'll get the bidniz out of the way: 
Age - indeterminate, but I am more than legal
Character/movie - currently Mr. Willy Wonka (see icon)
How did you get your costume? - bought some pieces via ebay and made the rest.  The cane is Tap Plastics, Target, and Orchard Supply Hardware, pretty much in that order.

I've been Willy Wonka for about a year now, but lately I've felt a need to try out more characters.  As I think glued on facial hair looks cheesy and I cannot grow any of my own, I'm sticking to the clean-shaven Depp.

The next character will be Sands.  I imagine he is great fun to play, and I plan to stagger around WonderCon as Sands next year.

I'd also like to attend a Furry Convention as Raoul Duke, complete with lizard tail.  I figure Duke is Captain Jack with less hair and more drugs.

I will still do Wonka, as he is my alter ego.  Heck, I just got my license plate frame:  Good Morning Starshine, the Earth says hello!

AHOY MATES!

Tis Your friendly cosplay entertainment director that "themes" and creates "interactive entertainment" experiences for conventions. I know after this summer's movie blockbuster sequel there are alot of cosplayers with a renewed love for the character Captain Jack Sparrow so I'm wondering do any of you working on (or having completed) such a costume live in the Texas (specifically Chorpus Christi) area? We are looking SPECIFICALLY for a Jack Sparrow ONLY at this time. All other character slots have been filled for the production. Sorry. ^^; Becoming a part of the voulenteer cosplay entertainment troupe will gain you the following benefits!

"We'll prob. let them eat with the guests at dinner as well." (more free food)
- Press, Publicity, and Photos galore for your on stage cosplay performances!

What you will be required to do as the Captain:

You will absoloutely NOT be just standing and modeling the cosplay. That being said if your shy this isn't the gig your looking for.

You need to have a Captain Jack Sparrow cosplay. We don't care what version, as long as it's recognizable and as close to accurate to the film's versions as possible. You will also be spending the majority of Saturday walking around carrying a large jar of dirt. If your interested, please comment in this club entry or the "cosplay casting" journal this post is being made from. You can also e-mail the creative director ( MissCeleste@galaxypro.org ) directly, or send an e-mail into the Asst. Director of Realmscon at ( AsstDirector@realmscon.com ) stating you are interested in playing Jack Sparrow for Realmscon's "Interactive Scavanger Hunt". You CAN be a cross player. (female Jack) We don't care. As long as you can pull off the look and the voice.
