I'm so happy for you Siren, that costume is so awesome ! Siren I don't think the kids on your back would be an issue I do that to my baby cousins all the time, but your obviously gonna have to work more on your arm-strength, I noticed that pushups are great for this. I bet that would help u with the endurance, and no u won't be buff if u do it LOL
She sent me 7 more pics last night. All she had to finish is the neck and back feet. The back feet you see here are her goat feet. I sent her a package last week with a helmet to mount the head and neck on and shoes to build the back feet around. Hence why the unicorn has a human head here
Looking at the pictures and the position you need to be in: will blood rush to your head? I know that you're not upside-down in the costume, but will dizziness be a problem at all?

Yes, Wii Fit is an awesome package. Too bad I don't work out as much as I should .
Anyways, this is a very cool venture for you to pursue. The suit is compelling enough that it should impress people and thus gain people to your business.
Oh, I see what you mean, and yeah, I was going to make a bridle actually. A saddle would only add more weight and heat to me. But a bridle for a slow, short walk should do just fine.
Oddly enough, I have like 7 adopted internet children....of people who want me to be their mom, lmao
Costume is complete. She will be receiving the remainder of the money on 1/30 when I am scheduled to receive my tax return. Till then, I suffer in anticipation.
wow, applaud you doing what you love and taking control of things.
My cousin and his wife also started a costume shop over 10 years ago, sort of as a joke. But it's grown into a huge store with thousands of costumes for rent. Let's just say their ship has really come in.
It'll be tough in this economy, but I hope you succeed!
I know, its actually not expressionless. I plan to stand in front of my mirror or a camera and try different poses and head tilts to see how i can make the most of its expressions.
