Tom Heck’s Floating Specter Costume
I designed and built this costume for Halloween 2020 and used it for several hours in downtown Asheville hoping I’d bring a little joy into people’s lives. The build took about 10 hours spread out over two weeks. The arms were the most challenging part to design and I made several iterations of them. The costume is very top heavy which made riding the Segway MiniPro very challenging but after 30 minutes of riding I got the hang of it. After watching video of my costume in action I’ve realized I need more white strips of fabric hanging off of the costume.
