I finally decided to start my Jack Skellington for Christmas this year. I was having prop withdrawal and started it and couldn't stop. I got it done in one day!! I used a felt material wrapped around 3/4 pvc pipe, a mask I bought this year and some new led Christmas lights--

I would love to drive by your house and see that!

Come on by, I will turn the lights on just for you!! Thanks guys

that is really cool. love him lit up. just a question though, will that felt material hold up in the weather, or was it needed to be sealed in case of rain?

 

[Glass 'eye']

I did not seal the material, I think I might find out the hard way if it doesn't hold up

 

[Aether]

Classic, I love it!

 

[Zeltino]

Haha that's awesome! Great job .

 

[DaveintheGrave]

Wow! Great likeness!
It looks just like Jack.

 

[halinar]

Very cool!
Now that's a Christmas prop I can deal with.

 

[savagehaunter]

I used clear spray paint from Walmart for a buck a can on my Santa Scarecrow's felt, this is my third year using him and he looks as good as the day as I made him. On my Santa Jack Skellington I used waterproof nylon. Your Jack looks great sitting on your roof.

So cool! My daughter will go crazy when she sees this. She wants us to do a Nightmare before Christmas scene.

That is a great idea! I will try that, thanks for the tip. BTW your display is awesome!

 

[TK421]

That is fantastic! It really looks great! How did you secure it to the roof?

 

[Glass 'eye']

I used slotted flat bar and screwed it into the roof (don't tell the wife) It is secured at the hips.

 

[rockplayson]

looks great man!

Love it..I think I could do it too now that you said you used a mask. If only more time!

It was really fairly simple and I purchased the mask at one of the Halloween USA stores for about $12 pretty cheap.

You are my hero.

I'm just thinking of what I can put together like that with my Nightmare stuff. AWESOME job! Thanks for sharing!
