Here is a costume to go along with the mask I made...

for reference here is the mask



it was sculpted in WED clay and molded in silicon, casted in acrylic
Here is the costume.

The pieces to the costume are:
one set (top and bottom) green scrubs from walmart
a big red shirt from walmart,
a leather belt,
some rings from another belt from walmart
two sombrero hats.
elastic and thread.

I ripped up the edges of the red shirt and pants
I wired the metal rings onto the belt, cut the lower legs off the scrub pant and sewed some elastic on the edge to make (fingerless) gloves.
I cut a big doughnut shaped section out of the scrub top to made the bib and feathered the edge of that.
I painted the symbols of the gloves. I added some elastic to the wrist of the gloves
For the hat I cut the top out the bigger one. I cut the top off the smaller one and then cut the smaller hat up the whole side and rolled it like you would a paper funnel, glued that in place and the hot glued both hats together. feather the edges and painted with spray paint, a dark red and black ghosted on the edges to make in look burnt, and some black streaks for shading. I put some metal rings on the seam between the two hats to help hide the seam.

Here you go, please let me know what you think. This was just a quick costume for myself with low cost being the main concern.
I really like how the hat came out, and the mask is really cool.

Very cool.
It's got a witch-doctor, Caribbean look to it.

That's pretty cool. What was the inspiration?

I do hope that you won't be offended.. I think it looks like an insect. A very strange, possibly aggressive insect?
(Maybe very few others will see it this way?)

It's the Skull Kid from Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. [link]

Excellent costume.


(But damn, I hate that game. 3 day in-game time limit is a recipe for panic attack. I have crashed the moon on purpose so many times...)

Oh. Crap.
That's one of my kids' favorite games.
Now I feel like a crappy dad that I didn't know that.
Thanks a lot.

Thanks everyone for the nice comments!
Yes it is inspired from Majora's Mask the Zelda game.
I really like the design. That is the reason I wanted to make it, such a powerful yet simple design (it is a pain in the arse to paint though, about a weeks worth of taping off and painting, but it is well worth it. Very happy with the results of the whole thing.

It's really is both insect and tribal, very shaman like, really love the design, and all yall's comments!. Thanks!
