Description A nice full body shot of my tentaspy costume. If you want more details on making of it go here: [link]

I worked like a dog for 3 weeks before Otakon and got this baby done. SO HAPPY. 320 suckers, 8 huge tentacles, almost 100 yards of tulle for stuffing, and airbrushed made-from-scratch webbed gloves and custom made vest. Also Scarecrow fangs and face makeup to complete the monstery-blue-pale look.

I'm not a huge fan of tentaspy but holy crap this is an amazing costume! The way you did the tentacles is perplexing! Just brilliant.

Hey if even people who don't know or aren't fans of the character can appreciate it I've done good! Thank you so much!

Those tentacles are.... kind of amazing. I love how well your actual legs legs blend in.
You've been like, my cosplay hero since I discovered I liked doing it (lol, first-version Sly at SCAD's Masquerade Ball).

God you are amazing with this cosplay. You need to make a tutorial one day, I would love to see how you constructed it. From the photos I notice that two tentacles are your feet! I was wondering where the hell your legs were actually! You did a wonderful job

why tulle for the stuffing? Just to be lighter in weight?

Weight was a big factor yea, but also because I wanted it waterproof for possible photoshoot pics by the river, and for cleaning. Also also - it was bouncier. The tulle is stuffed in coiling / overlapping bunches, like right off the bolt in 20 yard pieces. It helps prevent dead spots without having to stuff too firmly. (dead spots as in over time with movement / bending, stretchy things that are not stuffed firmly / fluffy enough will move normal stuffing around and into clumps, which kills the seamless tentacle look).

I have one dead spot on one of the back tentacles, where the tulle-wrapped wire was not properly connected to the rest of the tulle stuffing, but that's why I put it in the back! LOL (put the nicest stuffed one up front).
