Always looking for the opportunity to help our clients meet budgetary shortfalls, we saved an enormous amount of money by re-purposing an existing giant troll suit and creating a completely new look with modest re-sculpting, a different paint/ hair treatment, along with a new wardrobe.
This hybrid approach (re-purposing the old with new treatment) was extremely successful in attaining the high end look while saving an enormous amount in cost.
The Troll consisted of a full head prosthetic , prosthetic hands and arms, a padded fat suit, prosthetic gut / torso, custom made wardrobe and 14" leg extension stilts. The prosthetic was extremely expressive and the suits flexibility and comfort allowed the performer to do some very physical business.
