Thread: Paper mache corpse

Tweet

Here is my latest paper mache project.

Words can not adequately express my love! S/he is FABULOUS! What did you use as an armature?

Wow, that's a keeper - great job! I have the same question as BlueFrog, what did you use for the armature?

Thanks for the nice compliment! The arms/legs are made of 1" pvc and some dowels I had. The ribs were made using old garden hose. The skull is just a paper mache cast I made from a skull I had.

Here is a picture of it during construction, sorry I guess I didn't take a picture of it before I covered the ribcage.


Oh yeah, I used a recycled cereal box for the hip bone.

I Love it, it looks awesome....It seems to have an "attitude"...lol. Great job on the paint as well!

I have to say.. When I opened the post and saw the pics,, I had a big smile...Is that crazy...lol.. this thing is just freakin great... I can appreciate all the work you put into it..Especially the fact that you created the armateur.. This thing has an awesome presence to it

So cool. Has such a great presence.

Wow! Really nice job....especially liked the recycled hose and cereal box idea.

You guys are really getting my creative juices flowing. I think I may have to start prop making ASAP

More and more mache projects pooping up.. gives me nice inspiration for this year when I start doing my mache if/when I get some blucky's. Either through the group buy or bought privately through a fellow member, if I find I miss THIS year's group buy as well.
