Costuming Help... - Homicidal#9 - 09-24-2005

hey guys,

this year i am gonna do things a little different. Instead of going as Bubba, Fred, or Jay....or the like...i am gonna go as a clown...but not just any old clown mind you. I am using this foam latex mask..

and i got a actual clown suit being made for me. I got some big ass clown shoes that i am gonna put over a pair of black elevator boots i made awhile back. My question is this...i recently bought some of the big ass cartoon/mickey mouse/clown gloves. They are soft, fiberfil gloves. I want to put some claws on the bastards to make them much more evil. What would be the easiest way to do this. I have made claws for a pair of werewolf arms and gloves that i was ablie to just sew into the tips of the fingers and i custom molded the sculpy to fit over the tips of my fingers...should i go this route again?...or can any of you think of any other ways i can do this...also, any ideas in general on customizing the costume to give it a little more oompff...would be appreciated as well...

Tommy

you can cut some out of a old plastic rubbermade garbage can lid or storage container lid...just cut em out and glue them on the mickey gloves you can paint emand bend em before gluing em on....
