New addition to the family.

12' Vacuum formed Grim Reaper


     Well I traded Randy Goddard for his 12' Vacuum formed Grim Reaper for a couple of my props, little did he or I know it was going to take a lot of work to get together.  I have spent the better part of two weeks getting it together but I love a challenge, and still have a lot to do.
     This was a prize at GLFF, and these are seconds so none of the pieces go together like they should.  But with that being said I am not complaining, I love a challenge and am certainly going to enjoy the creation when I am finished.  Here are some of the photos so far, I will keep you updated with the progress.
     I have had to use a Pencil torch to soften the plastic and form it to fit, and used rivets and sheet metal screws to hold it together.  I have also built a sub frame from 2X4"s and 1X2".  Lots more to do, let me know what ya think.
