Well October went by in a flash!
My trips to South Carolina, Southeast Asia, and New England filled the month. There are some pictures on my flickr page, be sure to take a look if you'd like.
HALLOWEEN was fun :) I was
CHEETARA from Thundercats:
and Sean mutated to have QUATO grow out of his stomach (I know, gross!).
I'll share the process with you.
From Bob-the-Builder to Quato:
Step 1: take Bob all apart, cut off clothing:
Yes...ALL APART. Step 2: Take off his legs!
Step 3: Put Bob's torso back on. Now he is the perfect Quato size!
Step 4: Shave down the brim and top of Bob's Hat.
Step 5: Paper Mache' Bob until his face looks like you want.
*Be sure to cover him all up and sculpt him a little! He needs to look creepy.
Step 6: Paint Bob's face. I chose to mix a color that was very similar to the nude colored fabric I had which would be for his body & holster.
Step 7: Now add googley-eyes and hair. cover eyes witha little papermache so he has lids & I used hair from a wig.
Step 8: Make him a holster (stuffed his arms and covered them, and you are all set! *For a project where you have more than an afternoon, you can add a bit more to the body, but it worked out okay for a day's project and fun Halloween Costume!
Now Quato is ready to hit the town! Here he is driving:
