I was poking through some old photos the other day and came across my Halloween costume from 2015: Zant the Usurper King (Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess). I had this project in mind for years prior, but somehow 2015 was the year.
Made with foam floor tiles, contact cement, paint, and a crazy amount of planning. The armor set came together over the course of 2 months (Sept/Oct). The full costume consisted of the following:
- Shoulder Armor (foam)
- Helmet (foam)
- Mouth Guard (removable, attached by magnets)
- Robe
- Pants (sewed them myself!
- Gold Dragon shoes
My favorite part was the mouthpiece. Magnets place inside it and the helmet allowed me to remove and re-attach it with ease. I was initially going to do face paint underneath, but due to time constraints, I decided to go without. The helmet was more than enough.
