The members of the collusion re-establish in detail the base images, emphasizing the quality of the suit, the makeup and the additional attributes of the selected character.

The inspiration, design and manufacture of such suits is an integral part of the coin. In most cases, suits are self-contained by the players themselves, sometimes they are ordered to wear a dummy or bought ready. In Russia, however, there is no industry for the manufacture of such costumes.
