Give your zombie or skeleton costume a very special look with self-designed Halloween gloves. Decorate them with bones, tears, spider webs, or fun monster motifs and adapt every detail to your Halloween character. This way, you can create original gloves with little effort that perfectly complement your disguise.
For this project, you will need:
Tip:
Use lighter colors like yellow or pink for the initial sketches. Darker shades are better for details and shadows. Let the colors dry a bit between applications so they don't bleed into each other.
Variations:
Frankenstein, Pumpkin Monster, Skeleton, and Zombie.
Step-by-step instructions
Step 1
Put on the gloves so that the fabric is taut and it is easier for you to draw on it.
Step 2
First, sketch the most important lines, such as fingernails, wounds, and stitches, using a black fabric marker.
Step 3
Then, select the desired color and fill in the larger areas completely.
Step 4
After that, use darker shades to highlight details such as shadows, wrinkles, and depressions.
Step 5
Finally, use the black marker to add any remaining contours and fine details. Done—now the spookiness can begin.
