Edit (10/23): So after my initial costume (covered in the first few posts) I set out to improve my costume. A new wig was designed to enlarge the head and new prosthetics created for my eyebrows. It greatly increased the look.

New images from Dallas Fan Days:

I've started working with makeup and prosthetics and have decided to take on Pennywise from the upcoming movie. There is a pretty decent replica costume coming out of China, so I have ordered that. As far as makeup goes, here's some progress shots.

This image was the initial test for the basic makeup. Checking the reds and white. The reds clearly aren't dark enough. The contacts were carried over from my Junkrat costume.

The next test was with fangs as the front teeth and eye makeup. Images later showed that Pennywise has mangled buck teeth so the fangs were replaced:

Pennywise's lower lip is exaggerated so I set about making a prosthetic that would make my lip thicker. I blocked out a form in clay, molded it and did a test run in latex along with a quick makeup test to see how it looked. I found buck teeth and dremeled these down to fit the jagged look of his.

Next part that I am working on is the inset eyebrow lines. These have been blocked and I'm molding these today.

Stay tuned for more progress pics!

This looks awesome! I'm thinking of doing the Curry version this year, only because I'm not as thin as Skarsgard, lol.

I'm not as tall so I'll be a short Pennywise. :D

The test with the fangs looks great! Those lenses really add to it.
Thanks! Actually, the fangs aren't right. After seeing more images that have been released, I switched to the correct buck teeth. I'll have pictures soon.

I'll be picking up the costume today and giving it a test fit. I cast the eyebrows in latex and tested out the "cracked skin" effect for the forehead. Both have turned out great.

Wig was finished yesterday! I initially wanted to hand punch the hairs, but this became to time consuming, so I dismantled a wig and hot glued the wefts to the bald cap. My mother-in-law is a hair stylist, so I turned it over to her for styling and voila! The premiere is tomorrow night and I'll be attending in costume as a special event. I'll post pictures of the full costume tomorrow.

Do you happen to have a link to that costume? I'd love to do this for Halloween and an upcoming convention!

This looks fantastic! Love your little lip appliance.
Strange enough, ADI didn't make any lip appliances.. that was just Bill's lip. The guy has some serious control over his face.. try as I might, I can't pull a smile like that. :lol

Between the funky lip and that thing he does with his eyes Bill has some very strange talents and I'm kinda jealous haha.
