I decided (after searching long and hard for a decent Ewok costume for my 8 yr old) that I would scratch build a movie accurate ewok. My little one wants to be an ewok for Halloween this year. So this is what I've whipped up so far...

The other projects I've been working on are a zombie Mandalorian Bantha slayer and a Boba Fett. Both are cast in fiberglass and hand painted.
Im having a blast with these!

They are all amazing so far, but the Ewok has my interest the most. Any progress shots?

Great work, that zombie Mando is pretty unique! Are you making an entire costume to go with it?

Thanks all! Been swamped with work, so I've been slacking last couple of days!
Hope to get the ewok goin this week. As far as the zombie Mando... I may tackle the costume later. I'm having too much fun doin these buckets! Here's some more bucket pix...

Nice work on all, though I particularly like the Ewok.

Finally got around to finish the Ewok build. For the body suit I decided to repurpose a Bigfoot costume I used in my music video "Invading Yeti" (The Bigfoot Jam).

It didn't take much altering other than cutting down, gluing around hands and feet, then painting to match the look of mask.
I built the skeleton from PVC , cardboard and 1 x 4's. It's completely self standing.
The staff is 1" PVC and plastic. I covered in hot glue to give it a wood look.
I used Clay to sculpt hands and feed. Made a silicone cast and used poured resin to make final pieces for durability.
Paint was all rattle canned with $.99 walmart spray paints. I cleared with a better clear coat on everything including fur.
Beauty is.. It is still 100% wearable for my 8 year old & displayable after Halloween!
Enjoy!
