Here's a few pics of my progress on my little zombie girl. I bought the 39" tall doll at the local swap meet. The head was corpsed with caulk and painted and will turn completely around like in the Exorcist.
Here's a pic of the motor set up using an air vent motor.
Here's a close up of the rotating electrical connection that lights the LED eyes.

Love the doll head and the whole concept of the tall possessed doll too. I use to have one of those kid size dolls growing up. Sure glad I didn't see your doll first, otherwise would have had definite nightmares wondering when my doll would come to life and crawl into bed with me!
How did you handle the eyes? I really love the photo of the eyes. Look forward to your progress pictures.
BTW nice to see you posting Doc Doom.

Her face and little eyes came out great, and LOVE the rotary electrical connection!

Love the stitching on the head, and the eyes glow perfectly! Do the LEDs have an independent power source or are you doing something with a board to sync it with audio?
Lets see....Magic, miniature horses, penguins, lacrosse, volleyball, and Halloween
.......what, you seem suprised?

Thanks for the compliments. I made they eyes by pouring holt melt glue into a small spoon as a mold. I used cooking spray as a release agent. I then glued yellow LEDs to the back of each "eyeball". I used a capacitor so the LEDs can use the same 12V power source as the air vent motor. I'm way too dumb to try syncing with audio and don't need it anyway.
