Giant-Man/Antenna thingies on his head

[Cosmicman]

I am making a Giant-Man figure and can't seem to figure out what to use for the antenna thingies on his head.


Any advice before I do something stupid that I can't undo?



Thanks fellow Wisconsiner david_b for inspiring me to work on Dr. Pym.

I will have pictures soon!

What about taking the wire from a twist tie, painting them black, drill some small holes in the head and inserting them.

How about black embroidery floss hardened by superglue? Drill a hole first, poke the string through, glue it in place. Once in place, cover the rest of the string with superglue and shape it before it dries. (More kid-friendly)!!

I always wanted to do an ANTMAN, but wondered how to super-sculpt the helmet. It would take time, but it's definitely worth it. What scale are you thinking about for Giantman..? Mego or 1:6 to tower over the rest..)?

Go forth, Wrathdemon. Make us proud!

I am using a Famous Covers body because it is a little bigger then mego scale. I was going to use a Mego Christopher Reeve 12" body but decided since the Famous Covers body was the one I used for Atom Smasher, I might as well use it for Giant-Man. We he grows big, my daughter can just use her imagination.
He is coming along rather well. I think I found a child safe antennas for his head that is going to work!!

craft foam. About as kid friendly as it gets.

I came up with an idea. I cut open my new Deep Purple DVD and the plastic security wire gave me an idea. I cut it up to perfect size and glued it to Giant-Man's head.

Here is the outcome. Thanks all who gave advice. I think I will go with this. Pretty kid friendly!!
