If a child raves about superheroes, then one of the ways to please him in the New Year is to make a Wolverine costume. We will tell about the necessary materials and stages of work below.
Create the foundation
In the manufacture of this outfit, one can not do without a plain-fitting tight-fitting suit that emphasizes the shape of the body. The most suitable option is spandex clothing. To make Wolverine's costume completely cover the body, it is better to stop on tight leggings. They can be combined with a shirt.
Such a combination will allow you to hide from prying eyes. Spandex can be replaced with dense materials of bright colors. A perfectly acceptable option would be to buy a stylish tracksuit. After all, our task is to make a comfortable and beautiful New Year's Wolverine costume.
Take care of the mask
For real heroes, it is important to avoid revealing their identity, so when creating such a costume, you need to carefully consider the creation of the mask. She will avoid recognition. To make such a detail is easy. We will consider two options:
- Making a mask from cardboard.
- Making a mask from foil.
In the first case, the part can be drawn on a paper sheet, and then transferred to cardboard. By the way, ready-made templates are presented on the Internet. Do not forget to leave small holes on both edges of the product (a thin elastic band will be inserted into them). Striving to ensure that the mask matches the style of a particular character, you can decorate it with various decor options: color pictures, sequins, various shiny elements and stickers.
In the second case, the foil is folded into several layers and pressed to the face. This will get the desired shape. Holes are cut with scissors (after all, superheroes talk, breathe). To prevent the foil from scratching children's skin, you can use soft paper or cloth to glue the inside of the part.
Cloak for Wolverine Children's Costume
Start by choosing the right fabric - it should be light, airy, matching in color. If you have old bedding at home, you can use it. Or you can pick up other rectangular material. After measuring the width of the shoulders, determine the length, because the cloak should not cause interference when walking. The bottom of the part can be rectangular, triangular or rounded.
We select fashionable shoes
A beautiful and spectacular pair of shoes will complement Wolverine's New Year's costume. High boots will perfectly cope with this role (they can be both rubber and leather). Children's parties are usually held indoors, so high socks will be an excellent alternative to shoes. You can work on creating sticky boots, it will take quite a bit of time. You will need old sneakers or sneakers, cling film or bags. Shoes are wrapped in several layers of film. The height of the product must be adjusted to your preference. Then comes the tape. Torn into small pieces, it is laid on an existing base.
Claws - the last detail
Wolverine - from the category of lonely heroes, he is distinguished by sharp claws and a nasty character. For reincarnation in this character will have to call for help all available artistry. And the main attribute can be made of foil. You will also need rubber gloves. To achieve a shade close to the color of the skin, the gloves are repainted.
Next, dense claws are cut out (cardboard is good for this). Then they turn into foil. Using tape or a heat gun, parts are glued to the wrist. So, the Wolverine costume is ready. We hope that your child will receive a well-deserved prize from Santa Claus for his outfit.
