I made this super easy and functional claw from paper for anyone who wants to elevate any cosplay!

Supplies

Paper (any paper will work for the rough draft part)

Pencil/pen

Scissors

Hot glue or Tape (any tape will work for the rough draft part)

Thin elastic band

Step 1: Rough Draft Templates

Make a rough-draft of the shape of the claw and joints

Note: this might take a few tries to get the desired shape you want

Make 2 templates for the claw and the middle joint

Note: the template will be different for everyone it’s your custom design

For the last joint get a smaller piece of paper and fold it like this and use hot glue or tape it to keep it together

if you want to extend it you can cut out a triangle and attach it to the the top to make it longer

Make the rest of the claw and middle joint by following the template you made

Now use the elastic band and connect the parts from the underside

Decorate how you like and you are finished!
