I did a little bit of work. I am making another House of Wax figure so I cast the head part and doing the hands next.
I hate making the hat--I started on that a couple of weeks ago but ran out of fabric stiffener so waiting for that.

I may make the House of Wax a full figure. I cast shoes for it.
I actually did a bit of digital file looksee yesterday--checking out the Debra Paget for printing but it is complicated. Full figure from the Indian Tomb but I dunno if I want to go that far.
I may just do head and shoulder portraits.

aha!
I see you lurking around!

I got the chest pieces supported so it's looking better.

I have the House of Wax figure on a base.
I add the clothes next.
It looks like a mummy at the moment.

I sold another VP devil rag doll so I am getting more epoxy clay and also scaled down the laughing head so I can make a smaller version of it.
12 inches maybe. If I can get a red longjohns then I would have it really easy to make more devils.

My Debra Paget portraits
are off to see the wizard
the wonderful wizard of Tim

I did full bodies but I don't know that I want to do anything so ambitious with them but i have ideas for doing full figures and just painting the print instead of the hassle of doing a mold of them.

I may add the sword later if I think it can hold the weight.

Way cool. Of course with a hidden wire rod for support, the sword would definitely hold.

Think "museum dinosaur skeleton mounts"

I am not sure what I am doing next with it. The torso gave me lots of problems for gaps and then suddenly they vanished. It fits--I guess the padding around the waist changing was the factor.
The legs need some kind of special clasp--velcro doesn't seem to work well.
I tried hooks but it has to be really strong.
And the helmet isn't sitting right.

Meanwhile
I got my prints. The Debra Pagets turned out really good--and the eye circles show up better than all previous ones (not sure why).
But the Price heads are too small.
I don't understand how I made the scale wrong.
Maybe I wasn't so into doing them and that made me careless about it.

All my statue molds.
Decided to store them. If I have to take one out, hopefully it won't be from the back bottom row.
