My friends and I prepared costumes for Ohayocon 2004. We chose Naruto (not yet on US Airwaves) as our show, but we didn’t want to be the 100th person dressed as any given popular character, so we created our own gang of ninja based on the show’s costume design themes. A lot of military surplus and fishnet, some sandblasting, and a little metalworking later, we had some awesome and unique costumes for a very geeky weekend.

These pencil drawings fairly accurately depict the six of us in our costumes.
