A wonderful version of my favorite-ist guy-inna-suit Movie monster of them all! Great work, I'm very impressed~! 5 out of 5 Devonian claw fossils for you!

Every monster shelf needs a Creech.

>The suit material got sucked down into that mechanism that moves the material

When you sew stuff like this it helps to put a backer under the fabric before running it through. I use old photocopies and notes, but newspaper would work too.

ahhh thanks for the tip!
My wife was gonna help me this weekend; but she had to run out of town unexpectedly.
The suit is so cool, I dare not try the machine again on my own...hand sewing is as foreign to me as the machine
perhaps a quick Google/YouTube video would teach me...

Wow, that is so cool! Really fits in with the other monsters!

whelp, it's been a long day...and a longer evening.
I have learned one important thing.

I CAN NOT sew for jack.

I had planned on picking up this suit from John at the Meet; which was my first purchase of the weekend.

Sat down tonite; cut it all out..started doing the hem on the left arm.
Crap. Not even six stitches into it; BAM, big ole jam. The suit material got sucked down into that mechanism that moves the material (under the foot).
During removal of the jam, the sleeve got stretched out a bit.

Sat back and said...mkay...

took a couple pieces of scrap from what I cut off the pattern....

good grief what a mess.

This thing is going to have to be all hand done before I ruin it further.
Hopefully my wife won't go to bed so darn early tomorrow and help me.

Amazing Creature! Very, very Mego-like in spirit and execution. Bravo!

I was lucky enough to get those from mikeoz as well.

And if I would have read your first post better I'd have seen that. Thanks.
