A Japanese man who calls himself Toko-san on Twitter paid $15,750 to a specialized company to look like a border collie dog. Zeppet is dedicated to making highly realistic sculptures or costumes for the film industry.
The company took about 40 days to make the special suit, made entirely to measure.
“I made it a border collie because it looks real when I put it on. I thought that a large animal, my size, would be good considering that it would be a realistic model; so I decided to become a dog, ”he clarified.
Zeppet explained how the costume was made: “We used photos of collies taken from different angles, we improved the fluffiness of the fur to hide the shell of the costume as much as possible and we made the mouth open and close on its own,” according to the Zeppet spokesman. the company.
Toko-san explains that in this way she was able to fulfill a dream she had a long time ago.
