Hi,

I am looking for insights on how the wraiths in the attached photos were made...I don't think they have a pvc skeleton...am leaning towards a foam base with perhaps some papier mache for some of the texture....thoughts, ideas?

You have no attached photos.

However, PVC is a viable option for the core frame. If you heat PVC, bend it and let it cool, it will retain that bend after it cools. From there, various bits of chicken wire and other bits of heavy gauge wire to form up the body, then the outer coatings, be it paper mache, carved expanding foam, or some other technique.

Thanks Dana...trying the photos again....but what you say makes sense...I need to relook at my approach.
