Flocked Chewbacca

What body are you using?

I am going to use a Zica body with modified lower legs that will add some height and also adapt the Wookie feet to that body. I also like the articulation and the gripper hands on that body.

I thought about using the Bionic Bigfoot body but changed my mind after seeing it in person.

Height comparison, etc. pic between the BB and comparison between a regular sized Zica body.

Have you considered possibly trying to flock a body or a jumpsuit for consistency?

Yes, that is the plan to flock a bodysuit too. I have some on the way, but I did do a test on an old bodysuit and it will work. Here's a pic of the small section of a test bodysuit I did.

Looks great. I did find that you need a base color under a flock that works. I did a black haired AJ orange, but didn't paint the hair under orange.
There is some bleed through, so use a black or brown bodysuit. Hope that helps.

Yeah I have dark brown bodysuits on the way which should work great to eliminate the different color bleed through you see on the test piece.

Did some quick feet poofing with a different color. I think this is the color.

The feet look awesome! Love the way the fur color accents the toes.
