SMALL WINGS OR NOT THAT THING IS BITHCHEN! I'M GOING ON LINE TO BUY ABOUT 6 OF THOSE LITTLE BASTAREDS AND GOING OFF THE SAME CONCEPT AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK !
ROTTIN CORPS

I had hubby bring up two of our full sized blucky's from the basement for me to work with (gotta part one out for arm/leg bones to make the wings from). I'm getting ready to make the Mommy Demon. I've been laying out the bones and working out my wing design and think I have it set in my mind...A nice big kick-your-ass wing design.

Now I have to work out a pose that will facilitate the wing weight. And it has to be a pose that will work with the babies.

Part of the problem of balancing the wings with the body is that the wings can get pretty heavy (due to latex, armature and fabric. The bigger, the more weight) and will tip the prop backward. I'm thinking of filling the pelvis with sand to weight it down. But that's a down-the-road concern at the moment. I know that I have to address that problem eventually.

Look soon for my Mommy Demon WIP thread

Cassie7 I do airbrush and there is a material we us to show art & designs called "Showoffs" and you can get from BEARAIR.COM it is also calls pellon and is like the stuff used in shirt collars. And it comes in different thickness maybe this could help you out. You can get different types from other places like the Wal-Mart too. On a wire or coat hanger armature this could be used with a little heat to hold a shape. And you could paint it with latex and then airbrush.

cassie, that is awesome, you are really tallented. i love it!

Great Project. I think the winged demons really tap into peoples (TOTers) Psyche.

We built ours a few years back and its a fav of everyone that visits us.

We built ours so the wings flair out and articulate in a slow"flaping" motion.

Black lights and Florescent paint and it really "POPS" at night.

Great Job Cassie.

I am spending more time looking around at older stuff, and just had to say, Cassie7, that your blucky demon is the BOMB!!! Your directions on corpsification (both here and in previous tuts) are so easy to follow, you have given me hope that even I, MHooch, having no artistic or mechanical sense whatsoever, can accomplish this!!

Thanks!!

Have fun with it Hooch! The baby bluckys are uber cheap and there is no way to screw it up.

I love to see what others are doing with them.

My main advice is to open the jaw and move the socket where the spine attaches to the skull. bluckys have the spine attached to the lower jaw whereas it should be moved to the base of the skull.

Those two subtle changes makes all the difference in the world when working with bluckys/
