My Halloween Costume This Year - 12 Feet Tall
Deborah B 2 years ago
This is such a good idea, that you should just add to it every year. Put skeleton arms in sleeves on, and move them with puppet sticks. Use hidden strings, to make it beckon with one hand, and point with the other. Add a voice modifier, and then you can stand shadowy places, and make people think you're a automation, but then say creepy things about them. "I seeeeeeeee you, little pumpkin-head, with your pumpkin-head doooolllllll"

My Giant Dinosaur Pinata Costume
This has to be my favorite project and probably my best Halloween costume ever. It took about two months and cost only 50 dollars. I had a lot of help from a buddy of mine, whose help was invaluable.

This should be a couples costume, where the other half has a blindfold and a bat. Blindfold must bump in to everything and turn in circles wacking blindly with polystyrine or inflatable baseball bat, any time they hit pinyata man, he opens a flap in his tummy and throws candy at them.

A Friend Commissioned A Headless Horseman Costume From Me
Francis 2 years ago (edited)
From OP on reddit: Here are some additional photos including construction. https://imgur.com/a/1uOyUMz/ -- Edit: someone asked OP how it is to be inside the costume, if one can see and breath. the answer: "So the costume is about 10 lbs, mainly foam and fabric. The chest armor is made with a cutout in between the two sliver plates and covered with insect screen to make it hard to see in. Yet very easy to see out, his face is like an inch or so from the chest plate. He only loses his peripheral vision. If you put your hands up around your eyes and pretend to use binoculars, that’s sort of what it’s like. The neck is entirely hollow allowing heat to escape. He said he wore it for 3+ hours before he was done, but was completely capable of enjoying the evening."
