Well, Where do I start, I built a 12 foot troll costume out of a full block of foam, carved the whole body and head. It took aprx. 3 weeks to build, about 5 hours a day. Then I hard coated and painted and created a frame for the hair, it took 78 wigs to complete the hair (in which it stands 3and a half feet tall).
I look out of the mouth and walk pretty normal. I carved the inside of the foam out so I can stay in it , in which in Florida can reach over 100 degrees. I did lose some weight this halloween.
This Troll Doll Halloween costume was a very interesting costume to build and everybody loved it especially my daughter (for which it was her idea to build to troll). If any one needs help learning how to carve out Styrofoam, I got some good tips and pointers. And I hope you all like the giant troll doll. Thank you.
THIS IS A WORK OF ART… GREAT STUFF HER
Very Nice and great detail. Where did you get such a large block of foam?
Without a doubt, this is the most AMAZING costume we have ever seen! Can we borrow it? ;) Seriously, this is the coolest ever. I hope you went to a party and won a lot of money in a costume contest!
I am jealous of this project. I have a long time joke with my cousins about trolls and we have been trolling each other for a long time by placing the trolls in mysterious places. I opened my meal at my wedding to find that I had trolls in mashed potatoes. She is getting married on Halloween and I wish I could show up in that sweet troll costume. very impressive.
As an art major, I know how much work it is to carve foam blocks into shapes. I have so much respect and admiration for how hard I know you worked. and the detail is amazing. AMAZING! my first time carving, my giant apple looked like a dark tomato, and I love/collect trolls!
I was just looking through the pics on this website and came across this one, I just have to say this is amazing. It looks so great I even want to rub the tummy and make a wish. :) Truly a work of art. Great great job. kudos to you!
I am 10 years old and LOVE trolls! I love your costume I’ve been asking my mom a troll costume off eBay but now I want yours!
Would love to buy from you! Would you please post a reply and let me know how to be in touch if so?
