MrGzilla's 2014 Halloween Costume Contest Entry: The Creature from the Black Lagoon

Here's my entry for this years costume contest!
I've wanted a good creature suit ever since I was 4 years old and after 6 months of sculpting, molding, casting, and assembling, I finally have one!
I sculpted it in monster clay in sections just like the original suits were done. The head and chest were sculpted to match the land suit worn by Ben Chapman.
I cant get any more pictures to load right now, so I'll add more in the morning!

Your suit is amazing. How comfortable is it to wear? Any photos of the back?

Amazing work ! My favorite out of all the classic monsters . Great work
 
Re: MrGzilla's 2014 Halloween Costume Contest Entry: The Creature from the Black Lago

You did an amazing job, recreating this classic monster!
What did you think of the Gillman design from the movie Monster Squad?
I love both, but I preferred that one since it was my first exposure to the character.

Thanks! I think Steve Wang did an amazing job on the gill man in the monster squad, but I hate the tail he gave him and I'm not a huge fan of the head, but the body is great.
I still think that the original design is the most well designed and executed movie monster ever made though, and I doubt It'll ever be topped!

Congrats on your work! It really is excellent.

I voted for you in the Halloween Contest even though I was competing with you.

You earned my vote!
