Thread: PVC body frame

Here is one I have found on the net I used the last year worked pretty good for me. http://spookmaster.tripod.com/pvc.html

I made five life size Zombies this year. All out of PVC skeletons like the posts above. I use whatever types of foam I can scrounge up for the muscles. Some folks here like chicken wire for the body shape, which is cool too, and very economical. I like foam pool noodles or something similar because I breakdown and store the characters and foam stays in position forever. Storing multiple bodies year after year can become an issue. Here is my articulate joint tutorial if you are interested:

Best of luck to you in your Zombie build!!
