That means that you’d better make sure to come packed to the teeth with toy swords, axes, bows and spears, since every goblin, orc and merman in a five mile radius is going to be completely jealous of your rad new bod and you’ll have to fight off each and every one. I used spray adhesive to start attaching the fur on the back of the horse and the sides and smoothed it down.

It comes with an inflatable fan that does all the work, so all you have to do is stick those wiggly legs of yours into the costume and you’ll be looking like a full-blown (pun completely intended) centaur! Then came the more challenging part of guesing where to make your cuts and tears so that the fur would cover evenly as I maneuvered underneath and around the legs. To make the legs, I drew an outline of the legs and cut the pieces so that when they were jointed, they would make a shape like that of a horse. From what I could tell, other people used chicken wire, metal or PVC pipe frames, and hinges for the joints.

I rigged the back legs to my front legs using a pulley system, so that they "walk" behind me when I walk. NOTE* I ran the zip ties for the wig around the PVC BEFORE I put the fur on and snipped holes in the fur where needed for zip ties to run through.

I started adding hunks of it with masking tape and kept building until I had a torso shape I was happy with.The first thing I did was what anyone would do … consult Google of course to see how other people mastered this challenging costume.

I got this primarily for the braids and flower patterns, but I'm glad to have the centaur bodies, clothes, and new hairstyles added to my plush pattern collection.

I tested the movement many times before attaching the fur to be sure all joints were free and clear of any catches and foam.But look at you, you went with no responsibilities and a pair of blue jeans to all this to deal with and a killer equine form! We altered the size and length of the moving PVC pieces till they match the proportionate size of the Centaur being created then copied it for the second leg. We know your costume standards, and they just don't jive with that sort of work ethic: you won't settle for being some ordinary human, or one of those frail elves, or some goofy ogre. Of course, you're going to need to do something about that lower half of yours, since it needs to be a little more horse and a lot less human.
