Late Halloween post



Before Xmas strikes us, nothing better than a Halloween post, isn't it?
My son, as a big Star Wars fan, asked me if I could make a
Sand People's costume for him this year. Thought it wasn't too tricky to make it, then I decided to have a go using whatever I could find to match all the parts from the original thing. Any sort of materials: yogurt pots, permanent pens, old bets, newspaper, balloon,even party blowers suited well. Charity shops and Poudland also proved to be a very good source and helped me a lot. It took me a good 3 or maybe 4 days to get it done.
Lino hadn't seen the mask until it was ready - as he was out traveling - when he got back I got the nicest and most rewarding call from him while I was at work. He was truly surprised and happy - that was a priceless day for me.
Well, now I can share with you a few nice pictures I took through the whole process plus a short film we (Kika, Lino, G. Lucas and myself) did for fun. Thanks for visiting
