    Mummy#2

    Here's my 2nd 8"Mummy.I sculpted his head over a CTVT Richie(Happy-Days)head.The body is a CTVT Orange Body which had deformed hands,so I replaced them with the monster glow hands they give you with their glow bodies(came in very HANDY Here).I wrapped his body in gauze bandage.I painted the entire figure(head to toe) with Acrylics & sealant.

      Bravo, it really has the look of the post Karloff Mummy movies from Universal.

                  Awesome! Nothing like a set of Happy Day's heads used as cannon fodder. I do it all the time. Got a box of sliced up heads from CTVTs. There is always something to use for them.

                      Holy Tana Leaves! That's really excellent stuff, looks better than any production Mummy figure.

                          Thanks to everyone!!! I didn't know he was that special.I was going for the Karloff look with the head sculpt,but it came out looking more Lon Chaney or one of the other later Mummies(as T.B. pointed out).I actually had finished him a long time ago,and had put him away,for the safe keeping.I just recently had thought to get some pics of him,when I was taking pics of my most recent finished custom Gollum.I'm so happy that you all liked Mummy #2!!
