Coolest Homemade Killer Fish Halloween Costume Idea

The Homemade Killer Fish Halloween Costume Idea took me about two and a half days to complete. I constructed it entirely out of cardboard, masking tape, thin wooden dowels, and posterboard for the scales. It took a lot of putting it on and off in the beginning just to make sure that it would fit properly and not be too uncomfortable, but after I got the basic frame all constructed, the scales took me a really long time.

After I finally got all the scales on there, I took it down to the basement for paint. For the finishing touches I added the spherical Styrofoam eyeballs which I painted. It was quite easy to wear all night and dance in, and I had no problem getting a bottle of beer in through the mouth hole. I could barely fit it in my car though!! I actually had to drive to the costume contest with the tail sticking out the side window.

Nonetheless I was the star of the party and everybody wanted to have their picture taken with THE FISH!!

  1. This costume looks really cool, it has an original style, almost from another time period. Love the colors too! and I can’t believe it’s made of just cardboard. Well done.

  2. I love this! THANK YOU for the videos showing us how you did it. My nephew wants to be a killer fish this year and I don’t have a clue on how to do it. Now, thanks to you and your videos, we’ll be quite busy for the next few days! I’ll post it to show the final product. :)
    Well done!
