it's okay its an Asian term i used. basically it's just dressing up in costumes mostly TV movies games and anime where it originated. you can chose to dress up like an existing thing like captain America of a brotherhood soldier from fall out. or do original like me. its just a name for dressing up outside of Halloween hope that helps.

the good thing about this is it requires little to no money and only as much time as you deem necessary to spend on it. as long as its post apocalyptic that is.

stitching together two halves pf different tack vest would be pretty cool. make a hybrid of sorts. then it's just weathering. leave everything out in the sun, bury them in the back yard, smear blood on them every time you get cut, take them to the range and shoot at them a few times. do this to all your gear and you'll look like you walked right of the wastes and into barter town.

when they had the last Walking Dead marathon. they were talking to some of the cast and crew. they had a woman who did all the wardrobe alterations and she had a knife she kept with her at all times. she would use it to scrape clothing to give it a tattered look to it. that is an approach that can be taken to. plus to save time on the waiting to get cut thing. i got some fake blood i bought during Halloween that can be used if i choose to. you have no idea what all i got that can be used for this kind of thing. stuff gotten in trade. stuff picked up along the way at gun shows all over the country. the list is endless. lol. so i know i am set. i just need to set aside some time now.
