Scale Costuming Help

caldsteven · 12-09-2008, 05:24 PM

I need scales. I can't find anything anywhere on Google.
I need scales that would be attached to my skin and go around my eyes and then I would need more that go down my neck and throat. I assume it would be close to lizard scales. Any suggestions?

you need thin plastic...check hardware stores...cut it into the appropriate shape. The more realistic, the more costly/absurd...enjoy.

Along Talara's line, might wanna search for Sequins.

how do you plan to attach and how big do you want them to be

Just one word: Felt

I know when I'm trolling comicons for the ladies I always use felt to accentuate my glorious buttocks...

If you are sewing savvy, sew together a simple jumpsuit in green. Down the back of the jumpsuit, add felt back scales (cut into large triangular shapes). The felt can be in green but using a contrasting yellow is far more effective.
