I'm about to tackle my longest standing "dream prop": a full-sized Chucky doll from Child's Play. All the parts will be cast in rubber from a screen-used doll. I will be duplicating all of his clothes using the same materials and techniques as the screen-used dolls. Hopefully this will be an epic build thread (if I can actually stick to documenting it :lol). I've never been happy with the Medicom or Dream Rush dolls. They aren't very accurate and they are super expensive nowadays. If you want something done right, you just have to do it yourself!
While I've been working on this for quite a while (mainly tackling the issues with the clothes), I will start this thread with this little iconic piece of the puzzle:
The images on the left are from CP1. The right is CP2. Slightly different construction. Mine is sort of a hybrid, but I'm mainly trying to duplicate the CP1 doll. There are some subtle and not so subtle differences between the two:
I built the compartment out of styrene and cast it in flesh-colored resin. No paint here expect for the buttons. This compartment will be installed in the doll body, which I will be making next. On side note, I made these batteries size "C" like the batteries in the CP2 doll. The batteries in CP1 say size "D," though they're never shown inside the doll. I'm not sure what size the real compartment is, but size C fits better in my doll, so I went with that.
