Wendigo Halloween

 It's doooo~oone! Gonna get'chu! So I will say, it's not very comfy to wear the head, so I'll wear the full costume only for pictures, but the effect is amazing!  Here are some more pics of it.  I'm not going to use the extensions despite the coolness.

Costume Journal: Wendigo/Not-Deer Progress

 ðŸŽƒ Halloween creeps up quicker than we like! We are halfway through September, and that means all the stores are finally displaying their spooky supplies.  This year for Halloween, I'm going for a scary costume, the wendigo or not-deer inspired costume that will also be a stash buster.

So...the spirit of greed and starvation the Wendigo.  Components  The costume was in part inspired by another person's 3D kit on Thingiverse . It used a variation of the fox skull, added antlers and long claws. So, what I'm borrowing from that design is:  Skull Mask Antlers long Claws Fur Hood Where I will differ is I'm using this as an excuse to finally make those Hoof Boots I wanted.
