Werewolf forehead/cheek piece. Brainstorming session!

Post by VixenSingsBlack » Tue Sep 22, 2009 2:45 am

So, I want to be the COOLEST most natural looking werewolf ever. Every year, the weekend before Halloween, one of the professors at my school throws a wonderful Halloween party; I am a student/teacher, so I get to go to her wonderful party now (score!). This year's theme is werewolves. And I want to be the cooooolest werewolf ever seen! So I'm thinking about doing like a lace front, glue on piece for my forehead/cheeks/hands (maybe arms too).

The rough idea:
I've got KK jumbo braid which matches my dark blonde hair. I'm going to glue it to a very thin, sheer, fine light-pink tulle and glue that to my skin.

Has anyone done this before? Any tips? Please just help me brainstorm in general!

Last year I won most literary costume with this:

I was the Norse goddess Hel! (wiki her here)

)And on a non-hair-piece related note, I'd also like to make werewolf paw shoe covers--any recommends on that would be great too!)

I haven;t done anything like you are saying, but I did glue fur fabric to my husband last halloween to make him big side burns, and that worked fine. Obviously i know you are after something more realistic, but the principle of attachment would be the same I am guessing

What kind of glue did you use?

copydex, which I think is only available in the UK, but it is a latex based adhesive. The same stuff as eyelash glue.

I use it to attach my eyelashes, and to attach things to my husband!

Mmm, okay. I've got liquid latex, which should work but it's colored instead of clear. Maybe I'll try some prosaid (medical adhesive) if I can get my hands on it. Good not know it lasted well though--thanks.
