| Also you can see some of the goggles worn that way look a little "buggy."

And that's not even the buggiest one. |

Actually, the material is from a Halloween mask, but I separated the material from the mask it was attached to. It's machine-washable, which is nice, and it's not a face-hugging headmask... I just tie it in the back (thus the hoodie). So far, the hood doesn't bother me so much, but peripheral sight is a consideration, as is sound. |

Those rule. I think Indigo wears that style, too, but I guess we're not too worried about inter-community style infringement here, are we? |

I like the effect of the red lining. Having you considered some sort of bug symbol on your mask similar to how some versions of the Green Hornet have a symbol directly over his mouth? That's probably something you'd want custom done, though, because just sewing a patch onto that area would increase the fogging risk quite a bit. |
Whoops, missed this post!
I'm thinking if I do a logo, I'll probably go with the traditional chest location (maybe in the corner) or upper-arm patch style. |

| If I worried about style infringement I'd be in big trouble. I change up costumes almost as much as the Wasp and there are only so many options out there... |

Something similar, yeah.
Personally, I dig the look with the glasses. |

Heh, wow, I'm feeling first-time RLSH peer pressure to keep the glasses look!
I'll see what I can do to make them a practical addition. |

| I am happly accepting donations of new/used additions to this outfit, in particular items like gloves, bracers, or other armor add-ons. I do operate primarily in and around Richmond, after all.
Not the Richmond District of S.F.; Richmond, California. I've heard it said before that "Oakland" is a native phrase meaning "at least we're not in Richmond." |

| Nice looking glasses, and nice costume from what I can see there as well!
If you are wanting to mimic that look, have you considered using a pair of goggles (Like the swim ones where you have a separate lens for each eye) and modifying them to look like those glasses? |
