Shredder costume

I uploaded some pictures on FB and no one could see my armor that I worked so hard on! Here's a grainy phone one. This is the best I can do, since all my armor pieces are long gone.

  2. How did you make the spikes/armor?

    1. I bought some craft foam at Dollar Tree and cut out rectangles with round edges. Then I ran the foam pieces lightly over the stove (not too close) until they started to wilt a little.

      After heating up the foam, I formed the pieces to my shoulders and wrist. I covered them in duct tape.

      Then I made spikes and put duct tape over the spikes and around the wrist and shoulder pieces. I'll do a tutorial.
