[PaulEscolar]

First time posting AND starting a thread here, love RPF so far.

went as His Majesty, Jaffe Joffer, King of Zamunda from "Coming to America" this year for halloween.

I don't have experience with props but id say i'm pretty crafty when i have the time...A little bit of Stuffed Animal taxidermy, Balsa Carving, Sewing, and Sheet Metal Repousse was all it took this year.

Just wanted to Share, Thanks!

Some build shots...

So awesome! I loved Coming to America, it's one of my favorite Eddy Murphy movies. That costume totally rocks, especially since you look the part too. Btw, I hope that you didn't tie your own shoes, it's a totally overrated experience.
