I used Scar’s pattern to make Aslan for a Production of The Lion, The Witch and the wardrobe. I used Halloween ping pong balls I got at The Dollar Tree for his eyes. I bought quite a stash since it worked so well. I had to get rid of the red bloodshot eyes that they painted around his eyes. I did this with finger nail polish remover and then painted the rest white so that he didn’t look like he needed visine. I swear you guys, the lion looked real on stage a few times. Thank you so much!! I have always had a fear of making animals for stage. And you’ve really helped me to overcome that fear!!!
I love your costume! I wish I could buy it.
Kelly, your lion costume looks great. Is there a video of your production on YouTube, by any chance? We’d love to see it. 🙂
