Texas Chainsaw Massacre Life-sized Display Leatherface

[sirbrad]

Coming out great! Based it off a 1:6 scale figure and wanted to make it look a little bigger and scarier and keep the design simple as the foam is hard to cut out. So far so good! I decided not to use a bike chain because it adds a lot of weight, and even more work degreasing them. My goal is to make it as light as possible to pose with life-sized figures. But if I sell these I will offer them with no chain so you can add your own chain if you want. It would take 2-3 chains though and like I said weigh it down more. I like the stylized, sharp, and nasty looking chain look more than a plain bike chain. I would probably just put a real one before a bike chain, but then it is not safe or light either. Added tapes and some costmetic paint, now time to weather it and bloody it up!

Adding the dirt and grime.

More grime added and first blood stains. Nice and sunny out to show all the gory details!

Raw file of current progress about 95% done! Glad I finally made one of these I love it!

Thanks man! Really getting gory now! Adding the homeade blood gel with some chunks. Getting GOREgous. :) Outdoor photos will show the details better later.
