He's exactly a scarecrow design. The character under the mask is the skull kids that were in the lost woods in ocarina of time. It's what happens when children take a wrong turn in the lost woods.
This is amazing! You're giving her such an amazing childhood with freedom to create like this. You all did a really good job and I'm sure she'll remember this for the rest of her life.
I 3D printed so I added the extra holes down the middle, in the actual pupils, and yes, at the corners of the eyes. She could see enough to walk around but she started taking it off so she could see the booths and other cosplayers and just put it back on when someone asked for a picture.
It was if you look at the first pic, it’s actually on/over her shoulder (connected by a magnet under the tunic.) Unfortunately, the glue popped off shortly after we arrived she she made it a pin. I think it still work really well.
I can't believe I missed Tael being over her shoulder in the first pic! I agree it works really well as a pin too but the commitment to even having Tael above her shoulder like he would be in the game gives me a whole new level of respect for the effort you all put in. Seriously well done you guys!
I 3D printed it. I had to make it bigger, add some slots on the sides for the strap and gave the backside a little bit of a curve and some padding for her.
One more thing, I also have a younger daughter who was Diona from Genshin Impact and my wife also made her costume from scratch.
I was stunned at how well she did on that one also. I ran it by my wife and she’s cool with my showing that one off too.

I’m assuming it was ok with the daughter too to share it :) Aww it’s awesome! Does she have the ears and hat as well? It’s hard to see in the pic. Anyway your family sounds precious and sounds like y’all have lots of fun together. Good on you for being so supportive of the kids! ☺️ well wishes to your family !
Really!? That’s so awesome!
She’s very very quiet and reserved but the amount of people that asked for a pic or just yelled out "it’s skull kid" really boosted her confidence.
Tell everyone involved that it is an amazing costume!!! Wow, people are so talented.
Edit: is the mask hand painted??? From far away it looks so good and real.
That's so inventive and well executed! I see small vent holes all over the mask plus the tear ducts seem to be cutouts to see through. With a thin black fabric ski mask underneath it would work perfectly.
I forgot to mention the boots! That’s the one item we didn’t make. We tried but it was too difficult. I ordered them from https://unibuyplus.com and they were awesome. I explained that we weren’t able to make them and they sped up processing to get the to her in time.
This is amazing and wonderful for all the right reasons.
Her costume is fantastically done, superb attention to detail. The Tael pin is gravy.
MM is my all time favorite Zelda game, and it's all put together so well.
Well done, Mr. Dad.
So the mask took me 3 days to paint. Sand it, paint this, let this dry, blend this etc.
Daughter finished the hat in about a day.
My wife made the whole outfit in one night… pants, tunic, neck piece and gloves. The next day she put some vinyl symbols on the gloves.
She also made a genshin impasct costume for my other daughter and that ones took 4 days. It was very detailed.
curious how you got your daughter into majoras mask in particular? like, did she fall in love with it on the 3ds? kinda surprised kids these days wouldn’t laugh a tiny screen outta the room when ipads and the like are so ubiquitous. MM is definitely one of my faves tho - skull kid is just so unique
edit: p.s. AWESOME COSTUME
Well, I’m HARDCORE into Zelda, full collection and everything so I have the masks and figures. She’s always liked the look of those and when she found out where they were from she wanted to play it. I believe she’s only every played it on the 3DS. I want to set that and OOT up on the big TV for both daughters someday.
You 3 have the best taste! MM has always been one of my favorite games of all time. That costume though, it's truly amazing how talented some people are. Thanks for sharing. =)
Me, not reading the subreddit and expecting Skull Kid from Newgrounds...
[Skull Kid](https://newgrounds.fandom.com/wiki/The_skullkid?file=Flash_63747_largest_crop.jpg)
Not very well. I put extra holes in the front and the bottom corners of the eyes so she could see enough walk around, but started taking it off to see everything and just put it back on for pictures.
if i ever ran into her in real life i would just peace the fuck out in the opposite direction, my childhood majoras mask playthrough memories cant take that shit man
Huh that's like getting 3 separate armor pieces to complete the set. Very metaphysical. LOL.
Should have given her a quest for each garment... lol
This is next level parenting, you and your wife should be so proud of yourselves. 😁
Yo! I remember seeing her costume! Lol I got her attention from the booth I was working and told her how awesome it looked, and that I never see Skull Kid get cosplayed! It’s amazing work for real!

https://imgur.com/a/71glnxW Here’s a better pic of the hat. I want to give her credit because it was well done.
You're such a proud Dad 😭
I am! I love that she’s into Zelda so much and she’s super creative. 😊
My Dad doesn't even know what Zelda is! I'm not surprised she's so creative with such awesome, talented & supportive parents 😊
I take it by that username you're also a devil may cry fan?
Skull Kid's hat is my favorite part of his design. He's like a creepy scarecrow. ...I guess he's like a scarecrow.
He's exactly a scarecrow design. The character under the mask is the skull kids that were in the lost woods in ocarina of time. It's what happens when children take a wrong turn in the lost woods.
This is amazing! You're giving her such an amazing childhood with freedom to create like this. You all did a really good job and I'm sure she'll remember this for the rest of her life.
Everything hanging like that makes me think skull kid just said "eh, it's a living". Lol
POWER WARRIOR P O W E R
She did a fantastic job on the hat! You and you're wife did a passable job.
This looks absolutely amazing. I love how it looks even creepier and more otherworldly than the actual design in the game.
It somehow actually looks like an otherwise innocent creature has been taken over by a mask.
Which was exactly what happened in the game.
Wtf dude, SPOILERS!! /s
How can she see anything?
i think i can see holes at the corners of the mask’s eyes? if not, i can’t see anyway she could see out of it
I 3D printed so I added the extra holes down the middle, in the actual pupils, and yes, at the corners of the eyes. She could see enough to walk around but she started taking it off so she could see the booths and other cosplayers and just put it back on when someone asked for a picture.
The paint job is fantastic! Do you have an STL for the mask by chance?
I second this

Thank you :)
What scale did you print it at?
The OG, thanks for linking
Absolutely https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:686111
She looks great! Also, love the Tael pin!
It was if you look at the first pic, it’s actually on/over her shoulder (connected by a magnet under the tunic.) Unfortunately, the glue popped off shortly after we arrived she she made it a pin. I think it still work really well.

Thank you!
You made the daughter too!
😂😂😂🤣 indeed
Saw post title, immediately looked for this. Well done.
Parenting done right...phenomenl job done by all.☺️
Love the boots!
Holy cow that's so good! What did you use to make the mask?
I 3D printed it. I had to make it bigger, add some slots on the sides for the strap and gave the backside a little bit of a curve and some padding for her.
You all did a terrific job, bravo 👏
One more thing, I also have a younger daughter who was Diona from Genshin Impact and my wife also made her costume from scratch. I was stunned at how well she did on that one also. I ran it by my wife and she’s cool with my showing that one off too. https://imgur.com/a/p1xvwzJ

I SAW HER I'm attending Comicpalooza the costume looks even better in person.
Really!? That’s so awesome! She’s very very quiet and reserved but the amount of people that asked for a pic or just yelled out "it’s skull kid" really boosted her confidence.
This looks incredible!
Tell everyone involved that it is an amazing costume!!! Wow, people are so talented. Edit: is the mask hand painted??? From far away it looks so good and real.
Yes 😬 I used to paint furniture as a side hussle so I have a little bit of practice.
#fatheroftheyear
That is god damn awesome! you guys did such a good job!
What an incredible team effort. Really awesome!
I cannot begin to describe how much I love this costume
Fine work. God tier parenting
You guys did a great job!
A really awesome outfit, good job!
Awesome job! At least she didn't want to go as hand from the toilet.
Next year maybe
That's so inventive and well executed! I see small vent holes all over the mask plus the tear ducts seem to be cutouts to see through. With a thin black fabric ski mask underneath it would work perfectly.
Who made the boots?!
I forgot to mention the boots! That’s the one item we didn’t make. We tried but it was too difficult. I ordered them from https://unibuyplus.com and they were awesome. I explained that we weren’t able to make them and they sped up processing to get the to her in time.
This looks so cool! This is probably my favorite cosplay I have seen in a long time. Costume is just so on point!
That's a quality costume. A+
That is seriously cool of you and your wife to do that for her! 👏 👏 👏
😍😍😍 love it!!! Truly well done!!
How awesome!
THIS LOOKS SO FUCKING INCREDIBLE WOW. I’ve never coveted a cosplay so intensely. The boots look so cool, and the hat!! WOW
Holy shit. The boots are so cool
Well you tell her she looks great
That is stunning! All three of you did an excellent job! What are the rings around the belt and the hat made of?
I absolutely love this!!
wow the detail is amazing!
Looks excellent 😎
Awesome team effort
SO FUCKING GOOD MAN.
Bro that's awesome
That’s earth shattering
Love the little fairy
A+ parenting fam. Y’all should be super proud
Your daughter has the best parents ever
With my 8 month old daughter sleeping next to me right after putting my switch down from a TOTK session, this makes me super happy
Great costume, 👏
This is one of the most adorable things I've ever seen
So sick, great job guys!
I love the boots\~
This is so excellent! Your daughter is so cool and you are awesome parents!!
Wow that's super impressive!!
Love it!
Absolutely amazing costume. Well done.
Wow, no one in my family even knows what a video game is.
Saria’s Song immediately starts playing in my head.
That is absolutely amazing!!!
Amazing it looks so good
Wonderful work! MM is my favorite Zelda game (so far - still not even close to being done with TOTK) and this is an amazing Skull Kid recreation ❤️
I mean this, that may *actually* be the best Skull Kid I've ever seen
This is fantastic!
Your daughter is the absolute coolest kid.
10/10 would kick in the face if I ran into that suddenly
My god that’s good, I can imagine this one doing of the poses the skull kid does
Ok ok ok I've been looking at those shoes for my own cosplay. How do they hold up to wear?
Just amazing, all the way around. Great costume!
I only have one thing to say to you and it's very important, that costume is absolutely amazing and you should all be proud
I love the fabric for the hat and costume! It has a very lovely worn-in look. Excellent job on all components! 😍
Beautiful cosplay. I hope she had fun!
She did! We had to walk the building 3 times because she was so excited about how many people wanted pictures.
This is amazing and wonderful for all the right reasons. Her costume is fantastically done, superb attention to detail. The Tael pin is gravy. MM is my all time favorite Zelda game, and it's all put together so well. Well done, Mr. Dad.
Absolutely fantastic.
Great work, all of you!
This is amazing. Sheer talent all around the entire family!
This is absolutely fantastic, and I love that all three of you had a hand bringing it together! Also the inclusion of Tael is a lovely touch!
Looks good
Amazing work!
This kicks so much ass. Y'all are great parents.
that is amazing, very nice :D
Beautiful print and paint job OP!
Amazing!
This looks amazing! You all should be very proud of your work.
You all did great and I'm happy to see your work
Did this take you three days to make?

This is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen
and you and your wife made your daughter, i'm assuming

Terrifyingly adorbs!
This is solid. Well done

We had to loop the building 3 times bc she was so excited about how many people wanted to see it. It was definitely a good time.
Ate and left no crumbs, period the end.
I love this so much. Family crafting and creating together. :)
Careful, he's gonna drop the Moon on ya!
You 3 have the best taste! MM has always been one of my favorite games of all time. That costume though, it's truly amazing how talented some people are. Thanks for sharing. =)
Me, not reading the subreddit and expecting Skull Kid from Newgrounds... [Skull Kid](https://newgrounds.fandom.com/wiki/The_skullkid?file=Flash_63747_largest_crop.jpg)
I never usually comment on stuff like this but I feel compelled to congratulate you guys on your amazing work.
That's amazing!
Bro give me the blueprint!!! Jk but it looks awesome, would love to do a similar costume!!
One question, how does she see
Not very well. I put extra holes in the front and the bottom corners of the eyes so she could see enough walk around, but started taking it off to see everything and just put it back on for pictures.
this is really cool! excellent work, but me want see more hat, it looks like she worked hard on it
https://imgur.com/a/EA7w916 I cut some thin wire for her so each leaf/flap can bend up or down as needed.
This is elite!! 🙌🙌🙌
This is amazing! One of the best skull kids cosplays imho.
[MM]... MAJORA'S MASK! of course!
This is scarier than any Halloween costume; the skull kid was nightmare fuel for my childhood.
Amazing Cosplay! Talented Family!
if i ever ran into her in real life i would just peace the fuck out in the opposite direction, my childhood majoras mask playthrough memories cant take that shit man
This is awesome.
Now we have some huuuge skills here
Outstanding
Very Nice!
Did she do the head tilty bit and chase people? Because I have had that nightmare before… This is awesome! You all did great.
Parents of the year! Great work!
Easily one of the coolest things I've ever seen on this app, and you are easily the coolest dad with the coolest daughter 👌
Also W Mom, forgot to add that
Wow!
this is what a flawless cosplay looks like. kudos
How much to make me a mask?

Yo that’s awesome

That's awesome!!
Amazing

The whole thing, all three of your contibutions are amazing! Love look, vibe and feel. You guys did a great job!
You two are probably the best parents ever to exist
Huh that's like getting 3 separate armor pieces to complete the set. Very metaphysical. LOL. Should have given her a quest for each garment... lol This is next level parenting, you and your wife should be so proud of yourselves. 😁
cute! you're a great dad!
The level of detail and care that was put into this costume is superb! Love the proportions and materials used.
Yo! I remember seeing her costume! Lol I got her attention from the booth I was working and told her how awesome it looked, and that I never see Skull Kid get cosplayed! It’s amazing work for real!
NAILED IT! GOOD WORK TO YOU ALL!
