Here are the materials that you will need and where to find them. All of them cost usually under $5 each.
1, Thumbtacks metallic flat ones, not pushpins. You will need roughly a thousand of these. These can be found in almost any general store. The median price is about $2 for 150. I found a pack at the dollar tree which had 200, so look around and find the best deal.

2.Two gloves, one that fits your hand snugly, and another that fits around the first glove, but not too tightly. I used two left hand gloves that lost their right hand counterparts, so these didn’t cost me at all.
3.Hot glue. About two dozen regular sticks to be safe. This is the main adhesive you will need to make this possible. Alternatively you can use E6000, but I didn’t have the patience to use that for this project. That will make the final product a lot sturdier than with hot glue, but would make the time much longer.
4. Stretchy fabric: This will make it much easier for you to put in the thumbtacks. Note: that tightly woven fabrics will make it extremely difficult to put in thumbtacks. (Here’s a hint, there usually are remnants of this stuff in fabric stores regularly during the late spring and summer. That will help you save some money). A T-shirt may work, but I used Lycra on my glove. Or a pair of stretchy socks. Again, it’s a good idea to make sure you can put the thumbtacks in them easily.

5.Scrap Fabric. Just from any other projects or even an old shirt or sock will work. Just as long as it is big enough to cover from your wrist down to where you want the glove to stop. You can use extra stretchy fabric if you have it.
6. Metal Sheet (Optional. This is to add any sort of metal plating onto the glove. I found a regular paper sized sheet of steel at Home Depot for less than $1 near the metal siding. A single sheet will be enough for all three plates that are shown in this version. Alternative: You could use pie tins if you are desperate.
7.Aluminum foil. This is to help form the claws. Not much is needed, and this can be skipped if really wanted, but it makes the process much easier.
8. A Lays Stacks Container This is to make the inside plated scales on the wrist it also is the perfect contour for your wrist. I find these types of chips at the dollar store sometimes.
9.Acrylic Paint and Water Based Glue These will be for the painting of the glove and inner wrist scales. Both items cost around $1-$2 each. I got the cheapest of both and it cost only $2.

10. Thin non fabric-Backed Vinyl or thicker flexible plastic sheet. This will give the smooth but leathery texture needed for the palm of the hand. Make sure it doesn’t melt when you put hot glue on it.
11. A Sheet of Craft Foam. This will help accentuate the sections of the hand.
12. (Optional) 4-inch plastic pipe or Similar Sized Adapter. I wanted to show that this prop was meant to be a glove and I use this to show the barrier at which the main glove ends. An pipe adapter will likely be cheaper at $2, but I had this pipe laying around anyways.
13. A Small Amount of Clay: It can be air dry or oven bake. It must be fairly rigid, but have some flex, this will make it easier to fit onto the fingers. I used Sculpey basic oven bake clay, and it worked fantastically.
14. Small Neodymium Magnets: These are the easiest way to connect the metal plates without them being permanent. These can be found very easily and cheaply on auction sites.
15. Metal Epoxy or JB Weld: To connect the magnets to the metal plates.
