Most of this costume was bought. I wanted it to be as authentic as possible. There are parts I'm still trying to collect actually. I want it to be AWESOME! There's a rundown on where I bought everything on my website here: http://www.channelavi.com/gallery/rick-grimes/

I really love The Walking Dead and Rick is my favorite kind of hero. He loves and protects without thinking of even himself (and in the process drives himself a little crazy... but everyone has their flaws) I loved him so much I threw care to the wind and although I do not make a MANRY MAN like Andrew Lincoln, I show my love through costuming, so there you go. :P
