Create a Halloween costume using tape sculpture

Step 8 Even more tape?

Packing tape is great for building up the shape of the costume, but it laughs at paint or other finishes.  The only thing that sticks to packing tape is other tape, so we need to encase the whole thing in a layer of masking tape so that we can paint the costume and add any final touches. So, get out a few rolls of masking tape and a large-capacity MP3 player and get to tapin'.  Once again, take your time to avoid wrinkles.
