Thread: One quick question?

Tweet

I am making my electric chair prop, and have made a person sit in it, PVC Frame with newspaper and chicken wire. I just dont know what to do about the hands. I thought about using gloves but is there another alternative that is more realistic. Do you guys know of any cheap realistic hands I could buy, or any easy ways to make em'?

Thanks!

You can find various instructions for hands in the Search tab above or go out to HalloweenMonsterpage and I think there are some there.

Heck i was in the Costume store the other day (a big prop and costume store here) and amongst the various props they had a pair of latex or PVC hands in a skin tone. They were cheesy (probably made in China) but in a prop they would probably do well and the pair (from just above the wrist down) went for about $12. Put a metal armature inside them and you could pose them in any way you wish.

I bought a very realisitic pair of hands yesterday at Kmart. They were advertised as ground breaker hands but I used them on a dummy and it worked great. They are so real looking they give me the creeps lol Oh and they were only $10

I used stage hands on my electric chair guy:
