Gypsum - the White Ape

Darlene Nelson

 This is the costume I made by myself *just for an amazing fun: Ape Suit Challenge ~ on FB. I created the head out of paper mache, the huge feet (paper mache over slip~on shoes) and pod toes. The hands out of old work gloves and plant pods. Sewed up the suit out of long white fur. And; added fur ~ here and there for texture. Then, designed the prop out of a real horn. She's calling in the critters I design before a storm hits the desert. Definitely; having fun. Always. PS: added eyes in later.
