Those are awesome pics, great job on the stripes and the tail ;) The ears look pretty neat too.

that's amazing :)

Tail looks great... mine wasn't that good :(

I just wish I had lightened the body paint to match the tail... I thought the talc I used to dry the paint would lighten it, but it changed back to the original shade after a while. Next time, I guess.

Freakin' awesome, dude! One of the best. :)

looks great! whatd you use for paint?

That IS one of the best... actually, I'd say THE best I've ever seen. Ears could use a little work to look more realistic, and the queue could be a bit longer, but everything else is just spot on; I could never top it. That's brilliant, what you did!! :D:D:xD::D You went out this Halloween like that, right? That is a fantastic job.

On saturday and sunday. That's the advantage of pax! You can sleep in it.:D

Absolutely outstanding job. By far the best I've seen. :)

Thanks for the compliments everyone. Personally I'm not satisfied, and will strive to make next year's a bit better.:)

Nice :)

That paint sounds difficult... wish I had that kind of skill :P

I just used normal bodypaint, if I slept in it then it would have come off and my bed would have turned blue :P

Doesn't require skill, I just used trial and error (mostly error!). One thing I did find is that you really shouldn't mess with it until it's properly dry. The areas I painted carefully with multiple very thin layers came out great. The areas where I tried to hurry the process along by painting one thick layer, blowing hot air onto it with a hairdryer and applying talc in <15 minutes did not. Ended up with clumpy bits of talc and paint and I had to scrape it off and try again.

Having a second person doing the base coats while I stood completely still would have been better than doing that myself in sections as I did (I only used a second person when I needed my back painted).

This is... just... Epic Win! :)
