Some of the creatures costumes in the movie Labyrinth were made in a similar fashion :) Well done!

My buddy told me to look this up… Totally worth it. This is pretty awesome costume. Thanks for posting.

That’s pretty cool. Would love to wear something like that to a costume party.

It’s quite interesting in an extremely “nerd-with-too-much-time-and-money-on-hand” kind of way :P

But to /really/ waste time/money, it definitely needs:

1) Those sounds Evan mentioned
2) Those foam-padded legs Whatnot mentioned
3) Animatronic head (eyes, nostrils, neck, and all)
4) Animatronic (or at least not “hanging limply”) front legs (arms?)

Meanwhile, in Japan, the same kind of costume is made using mechatronics/exosqueleton : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xO4LYs_cXbc

He should flesh out the flanks where the legs muscles are suppose to be with some (not-too) flexible foam.

Or, just wear the similarly-styled sleeping bag:

Yes, I said sleeping bag.

(Nice work, tho – I’ll start on my wampa outfit.)

Wow.

I don’t normally harp on editing, but wow, just wow.
