Weird Bird King Costume- Fashion 2020 Q4 Contest Entry

Fashion & Wearables Completed Projects
1

Here is my Bird King of Hell costume! I love Hieronymus Bosch’s Garden of Earthly Delights and I love the Bird King in the third panel. I know no one gets it. That’s fine. It was pretty much for my amusement alone. :rofl: Head is made of paper mache. I painted the stripe on the blue shirt and I cut a sheet into a sort of skirt-thing. I’m kinda sad I didn’t score a Ken doll at the thrift store today but its not a big issue. Maybe later I’ll add to the costume: naked guy with birds flying outa his butt, some gloves, vase shoes, a chair…

Do I have to delete this post to submit it? It says it can’t face its own thread.
