Costumes: Childhood Monster Pelt

ONCE UPON A TIME, 
there was a little girl who was tormented by a monster. Every night it would come out from either under the bed, or out of the closet, to taunt her. No one believed of the monster’s existence, not even her parents or her friends.
She decided that she had enough. She stole her mother’s shears, hide it under her pillow, and waited all night for the monster to return again. He did. The girl whipped out the shears from under the pillow and put up a fight. The beast was finally killed. As victory; the girl gutted him, skinned him, and made a pelt out of him. A pelt she wore with pride, to the horror of her parents and petrified classmates.
Unfortunately, this conquest came with consequences. Unbeknownst to the girl, the blood of the beast that resided in the pelt began to seep into her skin. She began to grow talons, fur, fangs, yellow eyes and a insatiable hunger. SHE was the monster now...

The costume took about 1 1/2 months to complete.
I constructed the beast's skull out of foam and hot glue
I then bought the wildest fur fabric I could find and make the body following a coat pattern from Built By Wendy Coats and Jackets book
The Beast's eyes, teeth, claws nose, and horns we made with clay and coated with resin
Happy Halloween!!
