Sculpting and Molding "Jump Scare puppet" and "one eyed kelp zombie"

Two more zombie head and shoulders puppets (life size).  A tall one which stalks divers in the kelp forest and a "jump scare" puppet that pops out and chomps.

This guy is going to be covered in loose skin and shreds of seaweed, etc. He will mostly just bite but we'll give him mechanical eye movement.


Laying them up in clay to start the fiberglass mold.




Three layers of fiberglass.
Flipping over the tall guy to do side 2. Clay wall ripped away. Fiberglass all clean.

one long weekend, 2 complete fiberglass molds done, both sides. going to cast the skins, hairwork, mechanics and paint in the coming weeks....


don't do this without protection!
