the GRIM REAPER |
Base; Captain America head, M1 body
Other parts; Thor boots, Night crawler outfit, FC
Wrestler shorts
Trimmed all the red/white sections from the Nightcrawler outfit - the glove and boots cover the shorter sections. Used craft foam for the Reaper's head prongs.
The scythe was made from milliput, wooden dowelling and plasticard. Modelled thearm section straight onto the FC's arm... over a couple of layers of non-waterproof sticky tape (soak the arm once it's set for easy removal/replacement on the milliput sleeve with a section of dowelling already in place jammed (but not glued) into the wrist hole. Cut a blade from thick plasticard, cut this 'in half', glued that onto a thicker piece of dowel and then that onto the main dowelling section (did that make sense? sorry, typing this at some godforsaken hour in the morning) and painted the whole thing silver.
The skull and crossbones logo is acrylic paint and the boots were Thor's cut down and with pleather over the detailing (I suddenly noticed that I was starting to run short on Daredevil boots!)
