Here are a couple photos of me as Nightcrawler and my best mate as Spiderman!
(I photoshopped the eyes yellow, but I really am blue) We hit the streets that night for Hollywood Halloween on Santa Monica Blvd.

That's too awesome! I've always thought Spider-Man and Nightcrawler would make a good team up. Good to see you still doing your thing.

From another thread of Thayr's

I'm looking into posing for photos as Nightcrawler, I'll be graciously accepting donations. The expense of doing might be a bit much... $50 for an eye exam, $90 for coloured contacts, $50 airbrushing my face blue. I tried face-paint but it would smear, rub onto the collar of my costume, and it had a 'wet' look to it. I'm wondering if I'll be able to make any profit from this endeavor. This will be on Hollywood Blvd.
Anyone have any ideas or suggestions on cutting down on the cost of everything?

I'm curious as to where you got the $50 price tag for having your makeup airbrushed. If that's an estimate for you purchasing makeup and equipment, you're way too low unfortunately. If that's a price someone quoted you to do your make up, I'd say they're ripping you off. For comic book Nightcrawler, without the scars, even if I did some shading I'd charge like $10 plus materials (around $4). $50 is a lot of money to hose you down with blue paint. Or are they going to do things like style your hair too?
Since you don't have the scars to deal with you do have the option of using a brush. If you're interested, I can recommend several different products and sealants that will give you an airbrush look for a fraction of the price. Ben Nye is my favorite and it is very reasonable. There are others too, all of them used by pros, that will look good and won't wreck your costume. They are what my friends who do monster characters use when I'm not around to airbrush them and they look pretty damn good. For Nightcrawler an airbrush is NOT a necessity.
(That "wet" stuff was probably grease paint that hadn't been powdered. It needs to be set with a translucent powder or else it comes right off.)
