That is a thing of epicness! Not only a fantastic costume but I'm sure your daughter loved wearing it. Great job!
Heyyy! Thats AWESOME!Got a big surprise this weekend, when James Gunn shared the video that FX guru Alec Gillis originally posted of my daughter dancing AND a breakdown of the costume and construction.
As I've mentioned everywhere I can, building this costume wouldn't have been possible with out the amazing support this forum has provided me over the years. As fellow artists and cosplayers, I've learned SO much from you. Thanks you!

Yeah, figuring out the scale of the head-to-body is really what sells the overall look.
Marvellous work!! You are very talented, the result is outstanding. I would very much like to be able to reproduce this costume adult sized for a convention in France . Did you by chance succeed in creating a pdf version of your model? or can you tell me where i can upload the templates for the head?
Thank you in advance and again great work. :thumbsup
This weekend, I got a lot done...
I started work on the feet. I started with a duct tape model of her lower leg and some thrift-store shoes and added 5mm craft foam to make the feet.

Then I dipped some string in wood glue and added that to the feet for some details. Followed by plasti-dip.

I then painted this with a coat of beige fabric spray paint and then brushed over that with some darker browns...

Finally, hit this with a black-wash and painted the vines in for detail.
