Something I have been thinking about building lately.
I took a Mr. Thrifty skeleton and added a lifesize skull to it, cardboard ears, Some wire wings and black nylons, when the weather is better I will add carpet adhesive to the nylon to skin it. We will see how it turns out. Need some large fangs for teeth, any ideas. I thought about using hot glue to make teeth but what can I use as a form?

Now you just need a plane remote and you can scare the kids from above. Great thinking.

Way cool, can't wait to see how it turns out. Maybe add claws on the feet.

krough, you mentioned using old costume teeth in your painting how-to, this seems like another good use of some vampire fangs left over from halloween. After reading you're idea about teeth, I am planning on stocking up on teeth at the after halloween sales this year.

I use hot glue teeth on my corpses. I carved out some tooth-shaped cavities in a plastic block with my Dremel. Smear a bit of vaseline in the cavity for easy removal. Squirt in the glue, dunk the mold in ice water for 30 seconds, and pop out the tooth.
I like that bat! I've got a couple of Thrifty's laying around and I've been wondering what to do to them...
