The Red Dragon
Started building Halloween 2005
Yearly alterations, augmentations, revisions have resulted in this ever-changing ever-morphing and ever-amazing costume!
The latex portion of the mask is by Mario Chiodo. Latex has been repainted, wig was removed and replaced with brushed yarn. The horns have been removed and upgraded to real hartebeest horns.
I am in the RESEARCH phase of my fully custom-made mask. This will feature an articulated jaw and NECK! To keep tabs on this upgrade visit this LINK
Wings have been UPGRADED and are full custom creations by myself. For more information about the new wings check out this LINK
Stilts used are Powerizers. Latex base of the feet custom commissioned from a Dallas latex artist, they've been custom painted by me, and given a protective coating for extra shine by me. Seen here. Zebra skin anklets featuring tab-maille chainmail handmade by me.
Pants, Shirt, Arm Covers, Waist Cloth, Leg Covers all sewn myself.
Stick decorated with Zebra skin with real hoof at base, no slip end cover, melody of fox tails (including coyote, American grey fox, tundra fox, bobcat, and Australian opossum), canine skull (found in the woods while hiking, cleaned, bleached, and secured by me), and african antelope hoof is crafted by me. Next upgrade will feature a PVC base (instead of wood) to make it much lighter.
Five and a half foot custom dragon tail COMPLETED by me, however the costume has been retired as of 2020 as the useful life of the latex leg covers has passed.
