Many years have passed since the cartoon ninja turtles won the hearts of their little fans. They continue to hold their positions now, because the guys like true heroes: let these mudtants and invented, but they are so brave and dexterous, and they are any risky business on the shoulder!
Since the ninja turtle costume is incredibly spectacular and in many ways different from everyone else, your child is happy to put on it to visit it on the New Year's matinee or other thematic event.
How to make a ninja turtle suit with your own hands?
Mom, who will decide to deliver joy to her child, sewing a ninja torture suit with his own hands, will have to try. Since it includes many components, the manufacture of which will take some time. Here and the green overalls, and the shell, and the torso, and the knee pads with the slabs, and the blindfold, and other accessories.
In order to join the process of manufacturing a suit, you first need to purchase:
- green turtleneck (jacket) and pants. You can use the usual flannel, fleece or knitted pajamas of dark green color. But a lighter shade of green is also suitable, because you make your version of the costume, so it is not necessary to thoroughly copy the dispenser of animation heroes. The image of the turtle will become recognizable rather from attributes, and not at all because of the basis of the carnival outfit;
- yellow flannel matter;
- brown tape (from it we will make a belt);
- a little red matter - from it we will make accessories in the form of protection;
- a small amount of material type of synthetic winterizer. It is not necessary to buy it at all, you can simply extract such a stuffing from old sofa pillows;
- baking shape - large sizes from which we will make a turtle shell;
- velcro (to connect the details with it);
- acrylic and fabric paints;
- threads, sewing needle, scissors.
What is primarily good this outfit (for parents, of course) is in its budget component. When creating, you can make a suit of a ninja turtle from catchy material that has been stuck in your house. And if you have to buy something, then you should not worry about this: you probably will not spend a lot of money.
The basis of the costume:
- If your son does not have suitable green clothes in the wardrobe, then you can use a white pajamas from a flannel. It just needs to be painted in a dark green color with a fabric dye.
- Next in line is a turtle torso. It should be designated by a yellow oval, which will need to be cut out of suitable matter. You need to sew this part like this: to sew it first in a line in the center vertically, and then with two - horizontally - a line laid through the entire oval should turn out in the form of a cross. Try to adhere to symmetry so that the distances between the lines laid are approximately the same. But the oval is not stuck around the circumference.
- Due to 3 lines laid, you will get a workpiece consisting of 6 small “pockets”-fill them with some kind of filler like a synthetic winterizer. These pockets will play the role of the "cubes" of the pumped up the ninja turtle. Stitch the oval along the edge - and your work with the torso is completed on this.
We make "protection" for the ninja turtle:
- Cut red matter into stripes that will need to be sewn on the elbow and knee bends of the basic base of the costume, you can (but not necessarily) also sew them on the coffee cuffs.
- If there is no desire to attach them to the sleeves and trousers, then it is quite possible to do with the simple tie of the soils and knee pads - this will be even more spectacular. But they need to be tied tight so that during outdoor games they do not fall.
- In one of the bandages, you need to cut holes for the eyes, because all the ninja turtles are equipped with just such masks that are tied on the back of the head. It is best for such “protective equipment” to use fabrics that are not crumbling - thin felt, knitwear, etc.
- A great solution would also be used by ready -made knee pads and soothopers for skateboarders or rollers.
We are engaged in the manufacture of a shell for a turtle:
- The most important and complex part is the manufacture of a turtle shell. It is important that he is easy, since the child should not feel discomfort due to excess cargo, and had a good volume-like the house that wears a cold-blooded animal on his back.
- For this purpose, you will need a baking unit made of modern light materials such as silicone. She should not be small to resemble a real shell.
- It will need to be painted with brown acrylic paint. Since such a shell will turn out to be truly weightless, it is enough to fix it in the area of \u200b\u200bthe belt using holes made on both sides and brown tape.
- You can also fix the shell with Velcro on the tape - one of the ends needs to be pressed to the upper inner point of the shell, and the second - to the jacket in the back.
We make a ribbon for a turtle belt:
- For this purpose, cardboard is perfect, from which you will need to cut a round part. It can be decorated with the capital letter of one of the names of the cartoon ninja turtles.
- Your son will tell you whom he would like to represent at a costume event: Leonardo, Michelangelo, Raphael or Donatello.
We make nunchaki for ninja turtles:
- There is nothing complicated in his own manufacture of children's nunchaks. Two small tubes must be turned from cardboard and glue them with PVA glue.
- When the glue dries, paint them with black or brown acrylic. You need to wait a bit while the paint dries.
- A small chain (rope, lace) must be attached to the tubes - and this “formidable weapon” is already ready!
- But if you do not want to fool yourself with the manufacture of weapons, then you can simply purchase toy nunchaki in a store.
As you can see, there is nothing complicated in the manufacture of a suit of a ninja turtle. You will not spend so much time on this, but your son will receive a lot of positive emotions.
