Devil Bambi Project


Creepy pig nosed fuzzy deer from a second hand store.
Skin him and stuff his frail plastic shell.
Fixed his lip that was caving in. Made his nose even more piggy. Figure out his new neck length.

Fixed his hoof, knees and ear tips. Sculpted in the elongated neck. Finished it up with new eyes and a Bambi like hairdo.



Starting to wall up head.


Cave mold part one.
Cave mold part two.



Walling up his body section.

Bambi's body mold.
Reinforcements to keep Bambi from devouring all his forest friends.
Neck collar.

Testing out chains to see how they fit.
Glue fangs on.


Spray painting body.

Griffin Mountain Project


These are the toys that started this project. I was going for a Lassie meets He man kind of mash up.                                                                  
Ok so he's not a true Griffin (lion/eagle) but he ends up Griffin-like.                         
Monster Clay for his new face and white epoxy putty for the blend in fur.                      

Ready to pour the first half.                                                   

Two part silicone mold with urethane part.                                      

Ready for paint.                                                         

Sculpt a quick styrofoam rock platform.                                      

Covered in plaster.                                                       

Then covered in urethane plastic, bondo, epoxy putty and red fill.
