@Wendy - Thanks! The dome is made of acetate sheets, cut and taped back together. Full photo how-to set on my Flickr account: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jpotisch/collections/72157608550855945/
The snow globe is amazing! Best costume ever. What did you use to recreate the windows?

Love the article. Almost missed the links to the other costumes because they were so hidden. Especially love the blue monsters! Must copy!
Interesting shadow of the photographer in the F-Train photo - Shrek took your picture?
Great stuff Joel! Miss you guys and miss the old block! Are you guys on Facebook? Look me up if you are.
Even after all these years, you continue to not shock, but awe. I recommend Time Out New York Kids do a companion piece on carved Jack 'o Lanterns because yours are off the charts.
For those who have asked, I have pictures of pretty much all my costumes in my Halloween collection on Flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jpotisch/collections/72157608550855945/
