Chef Zombie

This is my last addition this year to my Zombie Props. I have to start making other props for my yard. Anyway I think this prop is over 6ft tall, since I am 5'10 and it is taller than me. I still have to paint the mannequin head black so the white won't show through the mask. I am also going to put a sign saying brains on the main course and maybe put a chef hat. Anyway here is Chef Zombie:

I love it! The chef zombie is a hilarious take. How did you make him? Is that a mask?

Thanks Terra.

Yes I have been using mask for my props because I got such a good deals on the after Halloween sales last year. I used wood for the lower body, pvc for the upper body and chicken wire to fill out the body. Since most of my props are bloody that I thought I would have a few zombies that had a twist. I figure Chef and my Walker Zombie will get a few laughs I hope.

very very cool! I like the way you posed him too. His pose reminds me of my Butler "Grimsbee" (See my album) Did you have trouble with his tray and arms?

I did with Grimsbee.....the weight of the tray made his arms slowly drop down, But then I did have him in the hot attic.....the glue may have done somthing weird in the heat.

Yes the tray is some what heavy, so I used pvc glue for the joints of the arms and shoulders to make it more sturdy. I also have a small wire connected to the hands and the mid section of the prop. The towel helps cover the wire, but I could take the towel away and you wouldn't really be able to see the wire. I didn't want the tray to fall if the kids touched it so for added security I burnt two small holes in the plastic tray and wired it to the mid section wire. it seems like it will hold pretty good. ( I hope

) By the way your butler "Grimsbee" is very cool! Also thanks for the nice comments everyone!
