Thread: You did WHAT with your Blucky????

We all know that the Blucky skeleton lacks a bit in the area of authentic appearance. I'd like to see a before/after picture of what you have done to personalize your Blucky.

As would I. I need some more painting/staining techniques.

Beacon Samurai led me to a wonderful site and artist www.davelowe.blogspot.com and he has some killer bluckys!

Here is his cemetery gate keeper that is just AWESOME! http://davelowe.blogspot.com/2010/10...e-patrick.html

Dave is currently working on a bucky themed prop for every month out of the 2011 build year and so far his sketches look awesome! Can't wait till the all come to fruition. I personally never liked bluckies much, but for the price and how well they look in some haunts.. I'm going to be a convert real soon! Not sure if you were looking at corpsing the bluckies to make them look more real, but the cartoonish aspect Dave uses looks very neat. He also has a tutorial on making hands out of crayola model magic air dry clay and it brings them up a notch!

Good luck!

During off season, my "Blucky's" stand behind garage door with hard hats and safety vests. Garage door opens it's a treat and a warning. Treat, watching people as they gaze. The warning, "safety" is everything.

Corpsed and all lit up. I put a 9V battery pack inside his head and wired it to LED's in each eye. The LEDs are screwed into an errector set flat bar. Corpsing on this one involved carving all the excess plastic from the ribs, arms and legs and removing the hands. I don't have any photos of the finished hands. I used wire coat hangers coated with Great Stuff and then stained/painted/carved to achieve a semi-hand look. The corpsing is a combo of latex floor adhesive and tissue paper. Spread some glue slap on some tissue paper, maybe add a second layer and get creative. I stained the final product but I don't remember what I used.

a Bucky with his Blucky cousins...


this is a 3 foot tall Blucky i modified




and one lit up in Pinhead's maze

oh i really like that curled up blucky. very cool idea. what do you use to corpse that thing?

The bride has a different skull and the others are part of a torture wall. One shakes in a cage, the next raises his arms and the last has a large motor underneath like a stretcher.

Okay, rnmully, that stretched blucky is HILARIOUS!!!

I have to throw this one in. Probably my favorite Blucky left "as is".

Keep the pics coming. I'm in dire need of inspiration. I'm liking the carving out of extra plastic in the ribcage . . .
