Thread: Head Raisers?

Tweet

Alright, this may sound out there, but I've got this costume that doesn't fit right with the rest of me. I figured out how to fix it, and that's to actually raise the mask up about 6 inches, to the top of my head. The only problem is, how do I do that?

I've seen costumes called Tall Terrors, that have set-ups like that, but how would I make one myself? Something that would sit on my shoulders and would be able to fit a mask?

mess around with clothing hangers. Ive never actualy tried it but thats what I was told.

All is done

Another idea is to get a few pieces of pvc piping or chicken wire,make a neck extension mold the chiken wire and wrap it with some foam(so as not to tear you real neck and shoulders)and attach it with straps or twine to your real shoulders.

Try wiring something to a hat with a strap (like a bike helmet).

If you need something to fill the mask on top of your head, try a styrofoam wig head (available for about $3 at your local beauty supply place).
