Thread: Doctor Grim

Tweet

The doctor is in and accepting new patients.

The head is a cowlacious talking skull, with a gear motor for a side to side head movement. I wish I had the time and money for a 3-axis skull...

I'll post a video one of these days, but here are some preliminary pics

thats really cool, did you use mache?

Thanks. It's paper towel, nylon and latex. The face needed to remain flexible since the jaw is going to be moving.

Very nice work.....love it!

Cool! I have a soft spot for talking zombie doctors
I'm really curious to see how it moves.

Mr Chicken. Your zombie doctor is the ultimate, I love him. Your Doc & singing Frankenstein are the gold standard.

My recent inspiration was a skeletal doctor from unit70, although Dr Grim turns out to look not much like him. I think the Unit70 prop is static.

For me when I create something, it never turns out exactly like what my twisted imagination originally envisions. In a way that's good because I will probably never be accused of plagiarism since the end result is unrecognizable.

I got a quick video of this contraption. There is no audio, the mp3 player is just connected to the skull with no speakers to allow for jaw movement.

I think I need to adjust the jaw movement.

Can't see the video right now (traveling) but the doc looks fantastic!
