Where did you get the domes? Did you make them or is there a good place to find them?

Killer. These kid's costume threads as we get to Halloween are my favorite of the entire year.

Here are my kids wearing their Despicable Me, Minion costumes that I made from the blue camping mat foam, fiberglass domes for the head, ABS pipe fittings for the goggles, and vacformed eyeballs. I sewed the jumpers from three xtra large shirts at $5 bucks each from Walmart. The hair is made from black craft foam that I superglued on the domes.

Here is their YouTube clip.

Go find a Girl and Boys Club. There are 1000s of Kids in your area that would LOVE to have you dress them up.

I bet there's an entire floor of your local Children's Hospital that would love a visit from someone with a bag of masks and simple disguises. (Call and clear it before hand)

I'll tell you what will humble the snot out of you...
A visit to a Children's Hospital - that's what.

Now THAT is a fantastic idea!

Now THAT is a fantastic idea!

Just be SURE to clear it with the Staff. There is a Liaison that does just that. A bunch of these Kids have compromised immune systems or special needs so you have to clear your visit (Security reasons) and what you'll do and bring.

They'll help you with that. After I leave a Pediatric Cancer Ward visit as Santa I have to hit the first bathroom I see and lock my self in a stall and sob.

YOU WILL NOT FEEL SORRY FOR YOURSELF AGAIN AFTER THIS VISIT. (And you'll wonder why the hell you didn't do it before.)

The domes where made from large salad bowls from Party City and I just beefed them up with fillers like bondo or paper mache` and fiberglass to make them flushed with the body. Thanks for all the positive feedback everybody!

Those look spot on! I bet your kids love em!

 

[lordgilpin]

Outstanding work! My little brother has already picked out a costume but he flipped when he saw these... Maybe next year...

 

[TrooperJasher]

Awesome!

 

[lilcajundevil]

Thanks for all of the pointers.I'm looking forward to the end result!

Did you make the eyeballs? If so, is there a site I could reference?

 

[Auryn]

That is so brilliant.
I would give them an entire bag of candy if they came to my door.

You guys are going to be a total hit.
