Hi guys,
Here is my entry to the 2014 RPF Halloween Costume Contest........... The Werewolf.
I have always loved Werewolf's and I have always wanted to build a Halloween costume, that I could wear publicly at horror events.
I started off with a cheap looking rubber mask and took it apart from its original hood/hair (bright ginger urghhhhh not a good look for a werewolf). I then bought a used hairy dark brown cushion from a car boot sale that I thought might work well. I opened up the cushion to find the label and it stated the cushion was from a company called Next.
I then decided to spend the next few weeks lurking around the dark corners of ebay to find more dark brown hairy Next cushions. Thankfully I managed to locate another 6.
I used the Ginger hair as a template and cut around its shape onto the inside of the Next cushion. I then sewed the new hair to the original rubber face. I then mixed some liquid latex to various dark colours, browns and blacks etc and painted some shading and highlights to the rubber face. Once dry I bought some elastic fabric and sewed to to the sides of the eyes within the mask so when I wear the mask, The elastic pulls the mask tight so my eyes line up with the eye hole slits.
Once the new cushions arrived through the mail, I bought a cheap black T-Shirt and sewed on a cut up cushion to the chest area. I added extra at the bottom to tuck into my trousers. I sewed it so when I breath in and out the hair moves with my chest making the werewolf look like he is actually breathing (I'll add a link to a video showing this).
I had bought a red shirt to go with a Wolverine cosplay that I thought was not working out to well so I cut it up to make it look like I ripped out of it and added red blood stains and dirtied it up here and there.
I then cut up a old pair of jeans and again added fake blood stains and dirtied it up.
