Description from Kadie: Upon seeing the Avengers movie a couple months ago, I decided then and there, I was going to be the Hulk for Halloween. He and Iron Man were definitely my two favorite characters, but being the rugby player I am, the Hulk is just a little bit closer to my heart.
In normal everyday life, Bruce Banner is a super smart physicist (a.k.a. LimaBeads warehouse manager?), but make him mad and he turns into the green, mean HULK! (Kevin when he doesn't get his snack time? ;) ).
My fresh pick tries to capture a couple of aspects of the awesomeness that is the Hulk:
-his change from man to Hulk: Raku nugget & graduated purple line agate
-his size: big light green garnet puff coin, green african opal faceted nugget, green mosaic magnesite donut
-shreds of clothing: purple amiet thread and purple sparkles
