The Never Moor

After completing the papier mache I filled the head with expanding foam.

I used a "T" joint and short PVC pipe inside the foam to use for securing the head to the body.

I built the body out of PVC pipe. I used 1" screws to secure them all together.

I carved the foam on the hands then applied several layers of papier mache. Again I used PVC pipe so I can secure them to the body I made.

I then used chicken wire to bulk up the body. It is secured to the PVC with hot glue where it touches the pipe.

I used some old Church clothes to dress him up. My wife unstitched them and sewed Velcro into them so I could get them on.

This is what it looked like all put together except for the head. I still need to sculpt a face and eyes. I decided that if I don't finish the head tomorrow he can be a headless Scaretaker.

It looks pretty awesome with the blacklights. I'll pick up some old shoes from DI tomorrow for him.

I used the wires from an old wire pantry shelf we took out a few years ago.

I made the palm out of cardboard and cut the fingers individually. I slid the wire down inside the cardboard and used hot glue to hold it in place.

I shaped the cardboard a little and used hot glue to hold it in place.

I used expanding foam to bulk up the fingers and hands.
