Sweet. Even though my favourite character is Talos, anything from Harryhausen is a winner in my book.

Re: Harryhausen Cyclops stop-motion puppet replica
Sorry for not getting back to ya sooner, I've just been swamped with Kongs and putting the finishing touches on the Cyclops sculpture. I wanted to wait until I got the Cyclops molded before starting a potential customer list, so since I'll be slinging plaster later this week I'll begin the list then. I'll post pics of the finished sculpt in a day or two

Re: Harryhausen Cyclops stop-motion puppet replica
looking really awesome, I would love to see the process you use for molding and casting if you could post some pics/how to kind of thing. Ive casted in resin but im working on a project now that needs to be cast in silicone. Keep up the great work cant wait to see this project finished!

Re: Harryhausen Cyclops stop-motion puppet replica
I'm using the same technique for molding and casting that I used for my other 2 puppet projects that are here on the rpf, the Tauntaun and King Kong

Re: Harryhausen Cyclops stop-motion puppet replica
Any chance on a back shot?
I'd also like to add that this is a beautiful sculpture... truly the best likeness I've ever seen of the Cyclops. |

Re: Harryhausen Cyclops stop-motion puppet replica
Here's a slightly older pic of the back, I've already made sculptural adjustments to his back since this pic was taken, I just didn't get a pic of the finished back before getting the backboard on.

Re: Harryhausen Cyclops stop-motion puppet replica
Simply beautiful! Please put me on the interest list when started.
Did I see somewhere that you've done a Minotaur? Are there pix posted anywhere? |

Your minotaur is fantastic. I was thinking you'd done a Minaton - from the Golden Voyage of Sinbad. ![]() I've always wanted several of Harryhausen's creatures. I just might have to hit you up for a commission or two. |

Re: Harryhausen Cyclops stop-motion puppet replica
Question: will the legs be fur covered like the original? If that was addressed earlier and I just missed it, then my apologies.

Re: Harryhausen Cyclops stop-motion puppet replica
Fantamation that is so beautiful. And the fact you even went to the trouble to sculpt in the scale detail on the legs when they will be covered with fur is just amazing. I can't wait to see him finished.
Great work! |

It was seeing Jim's Minator that was the deciding factor in the Tauntaun commission, Anyone with the talent to make that Minator could knock the socks off a TaunTaun, boy was I correct.
