I don't make them anymore personally but info@arachnidfx.com have the molds and take the occasional commission for them

@@kwalsh000 really he does and how much are they?

@@kwalsh000 I always wanted one since I was a child

Oh I know exactly why they are done in foam latex. I own 2 original foam latex lycans and work in the industry aswell as have many friends who do...but why do it in foam latex when I want a piece I can throw into a flight case..put on a mannequin...take off and wear then put again in storage and so on. A foam latex suit is just not as durable. Is it heavy? Yes. Can I wear it? Well 4 to 6 hours at a time in Atlanta heat on stilts proves I can. Just because others can't is not my problem. This was a personal project with a specific outcome required.

@@kwalsh000 Latex and Polyfoam would last forever, and you can make the head out of the same, since there is no movement. Silicone should only be used when translucency is required. Again there is reason why foam was used. So switch to latex backed with polyfoam, Silicone in a suit form, would never last as long as that would , and it will look identical. Let me add that there is no way that someone with your defensive attitude works in the film industry. Maybe if Steve Wang , himself , told you this, you would listen..

@@Valkonnen do you mean latex backed with polyurethane foam or..foam latex. They are very different and you said foamed latex in your initial reply and then foam backed latex in your last one. Latex backed with foam would last longer but having worn latex suits I don't find them as good for fit and movement plus they tend to stiffen in cold weather when stored and not be as durable as silicone. My 'defensive' response was just mirroring your approach of 'now you understand why' approach of talking down to me in your first reply among your other assumptions about the reason I made it this way. End of day. I made it this way because I wanted to. 5 years on its been on multiple flights..stuffed in cases..displayed..worn in snow and heat and still exactly like the first time it was made. Paint and all. Latex or foam latex..wouldn't be

@@Valkonnen also..ever see all those older latex masks crumbling or frozen solid with age due to improper storage? Contradicts your..last for ever comment. Even foam latex lycans I own are crumbling in certain areas after proper care.

@@kwalsh000 I have appliances that are 35 years old, and latex masks that I have made that are that old as well. As long as you keep them covered, and get no UV rays, they stay perfect. I'm not talking about "Improper Storage" of course. There is a reason why no professional has ever used silicone for a full suit in a film. We have developed ways around this if Silicone is called for . In the case of a full figure, which had to be translucent, Appliances are made by adding a skin of silicone, and backing that with a soft polyfoam, which would give the same translucence. In the case of a werewolf, and actually directly copying those for a particular film where it needs no translucence in the flesh, you are using a material which is too heavy and uncomfortable, tears easily from movement, even when embedded with netting, and is just not the right material. I have picked Steve Wang's brain on numerous occasions about these suits specifically. You can't get better than state of the art, even when you have the material du jour to use.

If you have 10k sure hehe

Just under the chin depending on how its sitting or where im looking

Cheers! Once events are back on we will be back..with more Lycans at Dcon!

@@kwalsh000 That's so awesome to hear! I've been going to Dragoncon for years. I hope 2021 is safe to have it! I can't wait to see your Lycans! I've thought of cosplaying Selene or Sonja there. I do lots of cosplays and have been adding more Vampires cosplays to my ever growing collection.

@@Nightengale90 do it :) there are alot of Selenes but no Sonya :) can't wait for it to start again aswell..we had 2 back to back visits before Covid kicked in and we quickly became addicted and try travel from Ireland every time

If someone commissioned me..of course :)

@@kwalsh000 how heavy is the costume?

@@MagsTerrave that version inc stilts is approx 100lbs.ive made 3 versions . Each a bit lighter

Thanks :). I was working off a dodgy core and first full creature suit, first wed clay sculpt and first silicone piece. Would love to revisit it properly in the future. Suit weighs 100lbs so wanted to keep any extra weight off. Either way i can def see ways i want to improve it

Ha and alot easier to walk in

Thanks. Do you have links..would like to see theirs

Not gonna lie but I loved bad moons version of the werewolf practical effects were top notch

Gladly :) lol. Check us out on Facebook at ArachnidFX or Brenachs Props :)

Of course! Check out ArachnidFX or BrenachsProps on facebook

Do it, you won't regret it :)

Too hot. You could do 2 to 3 hours max..anymore and heatstroke is a risk. Its 100lbs

We do sell raw casts so you can paint it like that ;)

Blake Gable you should walk through woods in the costume howling just to scare people

Primal Werewolf that's my plan I just got to find someone to take my money to make this suit

Can this be purchased? If you made this yourself, are there any tutorials on making it?
