Another wire prop I worked on during the winter. I discovered a recipe for making dryer lint clay which I used to cover the body of the Bat to give it more of a hairy looking texture. The wings are done in latex and cheesecloth. Once I finished the bat I coated him with Armor All. It gives a protective finish as well as a smooth shine.

Hey I remember Bat Thing! Well Vlad can't complain that he doesn't fit into the whole Vampire Castle theme Now you need to make about a hundred more, hee hee!

 

[Black Cat]

100 more, oh my!!!!! I have another one that I started but it's been in the wire stage for several months now. It's a much smaller one though. Something tells me that I'm not gonna have enough time to make more of them for this year so the rubber bats we have will have to do for this year. I'm running out of building time since I'll be going back to work in about two weeks.

Wow thanks. This was one of my first props that I made with dryer lint clay. I'm happy to report that Batty is still holding up. I did just after Halloween give him a new coat of polyurethane and AmourAl.
