Scary DIY Articulated Finger Extensions

  • See how I built spidery Articulated Finger Extensions for Halloween. The fingers are made out of Popsicle sticks, wire and plastic tube (water hose). I also sewed fabric gloves to wrap it all in. The creation of these wasn't the easiest, but came out alright. Hope my progress helps in your own process! Enjoy.
    Feel free to try and print the template I made:
    drive.google.com/file/d/1zHJ2...
    I found my biggest inspiration from Gary Fay, and the initial idea was to copy his idea more or less, but ended up a bit different and shorter.

    I like this. I think a full outfit that is that is musou black including the claws and a head crest with some LED bright eye would be great. Musou is rather literally the darkest black that can be manufactured. So dark it can not reflect light, so it is a dark that is darker than night. Hide in a dark area and start moving around. Power up the eyes once in a while to scare the hell out of people.
