Thread: New Prop-Moving Head Skeleton/Tombstone

Tweet

Thanks again for the kind comments. Yes I made those hands. I absolutely HATE the hands they put on those bluckys, but won't complain because of the low price. I do it quick and easy: two lengths of wire (or coat hanger) bent into "U" shapes (one set inside the other), add balls of masking tape for knuckles, run masking tape up and down each finger, slightly bend each finger into a curved claw shape, paper mache with paper towels, then a coat of latex paint and lastly I used acrylic paint for the brown color. (I always just make four fingers on each hand and nobody notices. If somebody does I'll tell them he used to be a shop teacher.)
That motor is one I have left over that Allelectronics used to sell until they ran out. I wish I had bought several as they were only $12.95. I use the same exact motor on my FCG, which this year makes it's fourth year running with that same motor. Also have the same one in my Opening Tombstone. I keep looking and if I ever see any more I'll let you know.

Looks Great, Dave!

I love the way he's gripping the tombstone and rising up. Very cool. Glad I sparked an idea for you.

This whole website gave me tons of ideas. I just wish I could find the time and money to implement them all!

I didn't get to do everything I wanted to do with my Blucky's this year... but, I guess that's what NEXT Halloween is for! Hopefully next year my Halloween season will be a little more organized and my life will be a bit less hectic. (Fingers crossed).
