How it started
How it's going.
Someone please send help. I'm being compelled to fabricate these costumes against my will. The hyper focus has worn thin and it's not fun anymore.
Edit: I'm done https://imgur.com/gallery/FTmFFDe

Wow

Incredible work! Sorry to hear that you're over it but you're doing fantastic!

That FNAF3 Springtrap head is near perfect. Well done @OP!
shandrono
Thanks friend.

Take a break, have a beer, eat a gummy. You're doing a great job. The costumes are fantastic.
FrozenSTi
Can't wait to see what you're planning for next year!
shandrono
Planning... riiight
Cats2cats
These are the things that stick with kids. Especially when they realize not all of their friends gets this level of costume.
JerBearington
Looks amazing though!

September? Been working on my cosplay since August. And it’s nowhere near as good
PleasantPeasantPheasant
And after Halloween you can sell them for like 2K each. Maybe more if you find the right person.
shandrono
Unfortunately they are very specifically fitted. My 7-year-old can't even fit in the 3-year-old's mask. Regardless, no, they will be added to the display of costumes gone by.
smorsdoeuvres
These are absolutely glorious

You are doing fantastic

I'm suspecting there's a darker meaning there than just a mom making her son a costume.

My dentist (old world-European boomer) explained to me that years ago before modern nutrition, supplements & medicine it was common for a woman to lose 1 tooth for every child she had, simply because of nutritional deficiencies & how hard pregnancy is on the body.
Today, the surgeon general warns “parenting is hazardous to your health” https://www.hhs.gov/sites/default/files/parents-under-pressure.pdf
So many parents give their absolute all. Looks like this 1 is definitely putting in some work.

Kids in Fazbear suits, very true to source.

😅

I'm going to show this to my grandson and he's going to try to make this himself. Amazing work!
JustBoone
Sorry to hear about the burnout but those FnaF costumes are AWESOME!

Your plant seems to be onto something
shandrono
That plant is a lunatic. Don't trust anything it tells you

Holy shit, the suit can fly?
BlueTyphoon
THEY FLY NOW?!

I'D LIKE 20!

That final caption is so fucking real I felt it pierce my entire being.

Did you know the stunt actor who wore that costume in the movie, Kevin Foster, was the same actor who threw gang signs in the humvee with RDJ at the start of Iron Man! Great guy!!!

Nacon
Hahahaha you're funny, you're doing great! ...now keep working on it, slave. Those free Halloween candies aren't gonna get tossed in a bag by themselves.
Alesdair
Fantastic work, the costumes both look great!tic
TacticoolWolf
The best part about this is that it only looks more authentic with age. Let the kids wear it longer; more bumps, bruises, and stains. (maybe this is how it all begins...)
shandrono
How does most viral work these days? Under 200 up-dos is viral?
akelamishari
Yeah ever since the big changes started you get MV with even less than 100, depending on topic. I believe it might be boosted some other way not upvotes, like badges and such
shandrono
Takes all the pride out of it dunnit?
SirVG
Make sure you send completed pictures to MatPat.
shandrono
Matt pat?
SirVG
But that's just a theory, A GAME THEORY. (Former host, did a crap ton of FNAF theory videos.)
korvorn
Awesome work! Was that just left over foam from packages or can you purchase sheets of it? Looks easier to work with than eva foam. Again, great job!
shandrono
It's scraps from giant rolls at my work, plus some upholstery stuff
korvorn
Good to know, thanks!
shandrono
"closed cell" type foam mostly

Is there some irony in that you are putting your kids into 5 nights at freddys suits. (IYKYK)
shandrono
ik
But to be accurate, spring trap is animated by ol' Billy Afton himself
YouTubeRed
Ah yes, the "Purple Guy"
TheMeatClownCometh
Again I am compelled to ask: why do kids that age know fnaf? Isn’t that inappropriate for kids?
TalaayaCosplay
Is it? You kind of have to read between the lines for the disturbing stuff. On its surface it's just some relatively tame jump scares.
TheVampireDante
Because you can't keep anything from kids with internet access. Plus the movie got advertised everywhere for a bit.
njrk97
The series itself is based on Mascots designed to appeal to children In universe already,Add onto that young kids like to consume media that is for the 'older kids',and the absolute wave of autoplay youtube slop that uses the character,and lets players with sizable kids demographics being all over the games, with a final sprinkle of its more disturbing elements being downplayed in its newer games. In its current state it makes very appealing as 'kids first horror franchise',for better or worst.
shandrono
My 7 year old knows, my 3 year old does what the 7 year old does... If 7 is too young, well I guess I'm a terrible parent
kanybal
It is rated 12+, according to Google
shandrono
Fine. Where do I turn in my #1 dad mug?
OpossumScreamingAtTheGods
If your 7 year old likes FNAF, I think you're doing a better job as a parent than mine did, I was around 7 the first time I watched Ninja Scroll. I probably shouldn't have had cable tv in my bedroom at that age, lol. FNAF isn't explicitly violent, it just uses some pretty tame jumpscares for a failure state.
shandrono
Oh yeah, gameplay is nothing. It's the lore that's a bit heavy
HonestbutSweetAboutIt
Ah yaaaas, the power of ADD. Never finish anyth
shandrono
Sorry kids, your costumes don't get feet
shandrono
Actually forgot about the feet for a minute there. Unpleasant change in heart rate when I remembered. I can totally build some feet. Maybe I'll just not go to bed tonight until I've made a foot.
shandrono
We're still in the concept phase
