Pic won’t post, but if you’re going the route of high steppers, you might
Want to make the Pants wide from top to bottom. Bell Bottoms, won’t look good. C

Hello. I made my legs first (stilts and feet with hair) and then I made the pants to fit not only the height that I needed but also the width to be able to cover the legs and not look odd with the dreaded knee bump.

Sounds like you’re on the right track. Try reposting Pics so we can see what, if anything your concerns are. They may not need adjusting. C

Now I see, There two ways to go on this, but it depends on what you want to do, after all, it’s your Chewie, one is to add mesh to your pants (not hard to do ) to the bottom of the stilts. Or two, Attach mesh to the foam wrap around the metal frame at the bottom where your toes will be. From the Pic taken it’s cut off at the bottom, so I can’t see how high you needed to lift, but as long as it’s not too much, You should be fine with a mesh and wrap. C
