WOOOOOOOO SHES FINALLY TO A POINT WHERE I CAN SHOW HER OFF!!! meet my latest project, Mangle!
Mangle is going to be like. my biggest project to date? I say that with every project. but like. hes going to be MASSIVE. I'm holding it out in the photo, but its still going to be huge. Instead of going for a more traditional costume, like what I did with my Vanny costume last year, Mangle is going to be a hand puppet. The rest of her body will wrap around my shoulders. I'm hoping to get her as accurate to the games as I can!
Some features she'll (hopefully) have by the time she's done:
Moving Jaw! perfect for snapping at little kids who get too close
Blinking eyes, for more expressiveness
Moving ears for. more expressiveness.
Detachable limbs, that can reattach to different parts of her body! Perfect for your take-a-part and put-back-together attraction :]
A speaker for static (the type he plays in game), to make it all come together.
Now, I can't leave myself out, either! Wheres the fun in that? With the FNAF trailers out, i've gotten a lot of inspiration. I'll have my own uniform like what Kim wears in the first trailer, complete with pins/buttons and all! And, for some additional flair, I'll make myself some Freddy earrings and charm bracelets with the main band members. Even Mangle will get in on the fun, with her own appropriately sized friendship bracelet!
Now i just gotta make sure its done before the movie :[ I've gotten a lot of work done within the past week alone, so i'm pretty hopeful!
In case you're curious, here are my materials and process (so far, at least!)
Im using almost entirely EVA foam and cross stitch plastic mesh. The whole thing is based on the jaw of the endoskeleton underneath- with a glove hot glued inside for my hand. That's like, pretty much it right now? Things like the actual surface will still be made out of foam, just painted to have the same look she has in the games. The only things that aren't foam or mesh are the magnets holding the endoskeleton head together and the acrylic spheres im using for the eyes! Whenever I go in and add more functions like the ear movement those will use thick craft wire, but for now thats all. I. uh. really thought there was more?
ADDING THIS ON APPARENTLY TODAY IS FNAFS BIRTHDAY HAPPY BIRTHDAY FNAF 1 <3333
