Just had an idea for customizing an 18" Spidey....

Cloth!

There are so many characters I want to make with this thing, but I didn't really want to customize one because getting rid of all that webbing would be such a pain in the ass.

So, I was thinking.....what about making cloth outfits for the thing, and using it almost like a basic 12-inch figure's body? The scale is also so large that cloth wouldn't look ridiculous. Then all I'd have to do sculpt-wise is make it a head, and fix up the hands and feet.

I'm gonna try it. They're dirt cheap at Target, and I might be going back there soon.....I'll pick a couple up and see what I can come up with. I might try doing a Superman and a Batman.......

You should try a masked custom. Just make the mask out of sculpey. Might make it even easier. [img]wink.gif[/img]

Here's a few ideas...

Jason
Leatherface
Hockey Goalie
Ghostface
Michael Myers

Well, I've already got an 18" Jason and Myers....certainly don't need super-articulated versions of them.

I don't know......I wouldn't mind sculpting a new head. That'd be the fun part (except for maybe Batman. I just did that bust, and I really don't feel like sculpting Batman again)

Holy shit! I just found a winning combination......

18" Batman!

Pretty much any regular-sized bobblehead should be at the right scale to do this.......it's just too bad those things aren't on clearance anywhere....

i think most normal sized bobble heads would be quite a bit too big...not to mention too heavy...

[Captain Beyond]

...and they'd bobble around...

[werewolfoz]

too big?? Hmmm.....I'll have to check that out. I don't own one, so I can't compare directly.

And Wraith - I'd obviously be taking the spring out [img]graemlins/whatever.gif[/img]
