4 Legged Stilt Costumes - Handmade

READ BELOW FOR MATERIAL INFO TO MAKE COSTUME!!!

We made 4 legged stilt costumes for halloween. We call them stilt spirits for lack of a better name. Mine has extra large medical crutches on the arms which make it really great for your back. Very comfy! Circus peg stilts for the legs (custom made by thespinsterz.com). Garen used dry wall stilts for his legs. They are mainly made of upholstery foam (it comes in a big roll for chair cushions) and fabric. Surprisingly easy to make.

We were inspired by the Frouds who made the Landstriders in the Dark Crystal. They have seen them in person and love them! We were also inspired by Miyazaki.

Feel free to ask any questions if you're making a similar costume and need advice.
Video belongs to me.
Music is "The Ghost Inside" which belongs to Broken Bells. Great song.

You guys should have two handlers with fake radio controllers, walking behind you and pretending to control you. Then, they should start speaking to people and "forget" to control you. See if people are freaked out!

Can you make a tutorial or a guide on how to make one

[Nicholas Greve]

Hello, i've fallen in love with this Costume, could you send me a guide to how you made it? i'm not that skilled in making Costumes, and i freakin love to scare the shit out of people, think this would be a good scare and amazing to walk with on the streets of copenhagen ( 'Strøget' and inner city) If you have the guide i would appreciate it SOOOO Much, thanks in advance

Sincerly

Nicholas.
