I'm hoping to get back to work on these puppets now that i'm in between production work. 1/5th scale armatures, under sculls with glass eyes and finished head sculpts... lots to doRelated content

How do you build this armatures? SO that you can off the heads or hands easy afterwards?
Wanted to try this out to, but I think I need a clear idea for a good armature first

Thank you so much, the sculls are UltraCal 30 cement cast in a silicone mold. I'm using Roma clay... it's so great for blending and smoothing

hmm thanks for the info. Im trying to make a skull blank too hopefully I can cast it hollow.

Hollow casting is really easy, just make a two part mold, then fill one part up and put them togeather and rotate it in all directions until the plaster/plastic or wax has hardened. My skull blanks are cast hollow to save on weight and material. These are cast in UltraCal 30 Cement, very smooth and hard stuff. I also use two part resins, they have a very fast cure time, like 60 seconds so they are great for me (no patience

But then creepy was what you were aiming for right? Creepy can be cool too I mean don't we pretty much all love movies with creepy stuff at least sometimes.
