WHO or WHAT IS NEXT?


This page is a proving ground for all the costume ideas that rattle around my head.  When they are worked on and completed, they are given pages of their own, but who knows where I'll find the time to do all of these!  It's true what they say.  It's my PASSION.  (Hm.. normal people's passions make children.  Mine make monsters.  Curious thought.)  I update this page often, as I have lots of these ideas, so stay tuned!  I don't want to give away the surprise of what I'm gonna do next (or effectively promise what I can't deliver), but I can't bear not to share, either.
MECHA I have it in my head to make a human-sized Mech.. It's not really my focus and I should maybe leave the job to someone who adores Mechs but it's just a thought. Could be fun, especially if I got someone to wear it with me and Godzilla and do a city-combat together.
DRAGON Ok, people wanna keep mistaking Korul for a dragon.. then I'll build a dragon.. a proper dragon. THEN see them make the mistake.. A BIG HONKIN dragon. One like the one in Sleeping Beauty.  I recently was inspired to make a 7 foot tall, covered in scales, massive, bulky dragon.. 
GODZILLA with Radiation! I dunno about doing the big guy. On the one hand, I'm skittish about using anybody else's character but my own, but on the other hand, Sci-Fi cons really go for recreations.. and if I've gotta recreate anybody it might as well be the big Guy. Maybe I should make my own VERSION of Big G.. after all, there's Space Godzilla, Baby Godzilla, Biollante and all those, why can't I make my own? G-cells in the upper atmosphere were caught in the lunar attraction and sent into another dimension where they met the Devil and became-- what-- Teen Godzilla? Ultra Godzilla? Bambi zilla? Death Godzilla? Dark Godzilla? Dunno, but it would sure be fun! BIG project! and I have to crush Bambi and destroy Tokyo on stage :)  I found the perfect material to make him, so I have to snap it up.
BABY-G Ever since I saw MIB I've wanted to make a cutey puppet for cons, something I could wear at a dealer's table.  That got smushed together with the previous concept, into making a baby godzilla.  I found the right material, but I still want to make the big guy to wear.
NEW DALEK A next-generation dalek, if I ever learn to cast in foam rubber or build out of foam rubber?
OTHER GARGOYLES I'd also like to make a purple horny gargoyle and a more human-faced green gargoyle that would be mistaken for a dragon less often. I wonder if people will ever pay me to make them costumes.. I GOTTA make money off this somehow.. and the funny thing is.. the digitigrade assembly, the wing assembly and those sorts of things are not sewn in and can be used for any costume. Would be neat if someday I could get a posse together and go as three gargoyles of the same type. That would sure be impressive.. We are defenders of the Night.. We are Gargoyles! I suppose the gryphon (below) counts as another gargoyle too.  With the basic design I can make as many versions as I want. Hehe.. just like Godzilla. Imagine: Korul, Purple Horny, Von Grein and the Gryphon. 

Hey, I figured out how to make wings that fold down and a foam rubber tail that would be very easy to sit on. I'm going to use that design to make Manhattan, the purple gargoyle. 
 
GRYPHON: highly similar to Korul, but with feathers. Easy enough to do but could be quite impressive. Easy enough to get feathers and feline fur.. and fun casting a new head.  Now though I could BUILD the head.  He also needs a proper name, like Lawak or Skya or something.  I know someone who has a gryphon called Legend.  What a perfect name for a gryphon, pity I can't steal it.  Maybe I should call him Treasure :)
ANUBIS Before I made Darkwing, even, I made Anubis, my favorite egyptian god. I have it in my head to upgrade the Anubis costume with the new techniques I know, to make white accessories to replace the gold, a molded head and alien jewelry all cast to fit. The Anubis costume was spectacular, but not quite up to the quality I'm doing now, and it's a costume I'm fond of (and sure easier to wear than Korul!!) Ah well, maybe another day.. I'd love to do it in encounter-suit style with all lights and fluids.  I wish I had more costumes that were all little fiddly bits :)
ZERG: It's hard to explain this without a picture, but ZERG is a funny looking worm like alien inspired by STARCRAFT.  Also a fairly easy suit to make.. but VERY wierd looking.
MANHATTAN: The purple punk triceratops gargoyle with the new wing and tail design is called Manhattan (his proper gargoyle name is Salemm, but he's very unorthodox.)
