This is going to be a full sculpting / costume build of Kitik Keed'kak or the praying mantis cantina alien. I am planning on it being at least 7' tall when completed with moving arms and some head motion.
I will be sculpting the head/body and then the Mantis arms. I want the head to move side to side and the arms to have limited motion. I am looking into pneumatics with air tanks underneath where I will be sitting to control her.
This is my first costume build of this type. I have molded/cast before but on a limited basis. I enjoy all the cantina aliens , but there are several that are never put into focus. this will be my first I hope to do several others.
I am currently working on the 3' head to body armature to sculpt onto and then will work toward doing one arm to cast for both. If anyone has additional images please shoot me a email.
