Total of 15.56!! Canadian!
Thats 13.40 US!

Man am I proud of this one. It's my first prop ever. Ive done others, but i started this one first. It just took a while to work on. I was inspired by John Carpenters 'The Thing' and my baby boy. The story behind it is, is one night I was putting Cooper to bed and he let out this horrible scream that made me think of the Thing when it would mutate. So I imagined his teddy bear next to him changing shape. Hence my creature bursting out of the teddy bear. I worked hard on this guy, hope you guys enjoy it.

Great Job! ----very unsettling prop....I really like that skeletal hand and arm coming out.
I can't help but think of the episode of "The Simpsons" where Maggie turns out to be an alien.......Homer says "oh look, Maggie lost her baby legs." LOL.

Good prop Cheetah!

I like it. Very creative in your ideas! I think this prop is one that shows up best under whitish light. The colored lights IMO hide too much of your nice detail work.

Wow. That is very creepy.
I like how you've made skin pulling away from the skull with nylon?
Looks very disturbing Cheetah
Great Job!

Oh man! That's terrific! The most original prop I've seen. I can't help looking at it, imagining what happened that an alien would inhabit a teddybear..That could inspire alot of stories.

OH.
no no no
He's going to be afraid of stuffed animals his whole life.

That's just not right.
Is that a photoshop??
Cheetah promise me you wont make your kid look at scary stuff like that! Atleast until he's older and can understand. You're going to do damage.

I promised her it was just this once. He will never remember it cause hes so young. She left me. hahaha no I kid, I kid. I have to put all my freak props away before he realizes how scary they are.

OH.

He's going to be afraid of stuffed animals his whole life.

Cheetah you did a great job. To look at something so innocent and visualize that is truly the work of a madman. I don't think you tramatized your boy, he's just going to take after daddy.
