This is going to be one of my first series of costume concept designs giving you tools and ideas to make your own version of this concept. I have a few other creatures in mind but we'll start with the toughest: the centaur/centauress. Now, to be honest, I have not yet attempted to make this myself. These are my design musings. I borrow heavily on my past costuming experience and what I've gleaned from tutorials. Some of the tutorials that were particularly helpful for my research are: Ginny Di's Centaur of Attention Book and Video . Kopolenske's Walking Centaur Instructables Trilemma Adventures: Halloween moving Centaur And Write of Passage's WordPress Blog Then I looked at other people's attempts at this costume and tried to decipher what they did. This will be a series of blog posts that will act as guides for different parts of this costume.
