Thread: FCG...links for draping?

Tweet

I built a FCG about 4-5 years ago and it's been great. however, the one thing i was never satisfied with is the way i draped the ghost. for some reason it does not come easy to me. So i want to redo the ghost this year and i'm hoping there are some better tutorials online on the subject than there were when i did mine back then. any you know of that make it easier?

The Flying Crank Ghost: New Marionette Instructions

this is the latest version from the originator of the FCG.

yeah, that one has been around a long time. I need one that shows real pics and of on being made that is much clearer to me. thanks anyways tho.

I think the great thing about them is that they all look different.
That said, I change my cheese cloth every year and drape it the same way and she still looks different from year to year.

If you go to the monsterlist page here Monster Page of Halloween Project Links and scroll to the bottom of the page, there are 12 or 13 different how to's on FCG's. Several go into detail on how to drape your ghost.

How about this one? The site has been shut down, but I saved this pic a long time ago. I was gonna build mine like this because I loved the draping and the mesh head as opposed to the foam.
