Groudon Costume- Work In Progress

Updates and the construction process of my Groudon Pokémon costume. This is definitely the most sophisticated body sculpting and foam padding I've done on a creature suit to date. Not to mention most expensive and time consuming. It will be covered in a soft velour knit fabric and will debut at A-kon 22 in Dallas, TX as well as being entered into the hallway costume contest. Features:Custom made LED eyes, hindged moving jaw, foam based extreme body padding. This costume is created for a legendary Pokemon cosplay group to be attending A-kon 22, Nan Desu Kan, and Animeland Wasabi. Other participants: Rayquaza built and performed by Starmuttani, Groundon built by CanineHybrid and performed by Rektheartist, and Kyogre built by DragaLegna03 and CanineHybrid and performed by Koosh-ball.
