Spencers Chucky Custom Rehaul Modification

[HorrorCollector]

Hello. I've decided to heavily modify my Spencers Chucky (The older version with the hard body). Since the release of mass-produced Chucky items have dramatically increased the past few years, the art of modifying your own cheap doll has died. As a kid I always enjoyed watching Howlrunner and berger do their Spencers Rehauls, as well as someone who went by SupraTT or Nick. Hopefully 10 years later I can do mine justice.

I bought this hard plastic Spencers doll for about 70, it was a mess and lost all of its hair (one less step I have to do) I plan to remove the stitches, recreate the mouth, add new eyes, fill in and add some scars, ect. I will post updates as I go. Thanks for looking!

~Update~

I have cut out the staples, teeth, eyes and part of the mouth so that the Sculpting putty has something to attach to. I have also started to resculpt the mouth area to close the mouth and get rid of the overbite. The usual size eyes for this doll is 22mm, So I bought some to test fit.

~Update #2~

So I've completed sculpting his lips, a bit on the bigger side but I'm happy. I also sculpted more clay above his left eye to add to the look, changed the shape of his top fish-like scar, and a lot more. I'm creating some hands for him on the 3D printer, and have ordered a wig and some better shoes.

I'm unsure what to do about his stiff body, the legs spread way too wide and his arms stay by his side like a soldier. I'm thinking of making the arms and legs plush, which would also help give him some shoulders, while keeping the torso plastic.

So I've smoothed everything out and started painting him. It was a little to pale for my liking so I did a light wash of brown acrylic paint and some small weathering. They eyes are not glued in yet, I'm just testing the look. I'm going to start on the body next, as it will be difficult for me to learn the proper way of laying hair, as I refuse to just glue naked hair strands like others have done. So this may be the last update on the head for a bit.

Sorry for the huge delay on this, I had someone pass away very close to me and it was difficult to get my mind back on track.

I secured the eyes on him and started drilling holes for the stitches. Initially I used some 1.5mm leather cord but it was too thick, so I picked up some hemp string from Walmart and it worked perfectly. Also, I decided to remove his stiff arms and legs but keep the torso, and I slipped the torso into a plush spencers body. This works out well but I still need to balance the stuffing so he has more structure.

I have now laid the hair down and glued it. It needs styling still and a few touch ups. I'm going to start working on the hands and body modifications and this project will be complete!

Well, I'd say he's pretty much completely finished. I did some touch ups and sculpted his hands. The shoes are from life size neca doll and look perfect on him. Decided not to trim his hair as I like it how it is. The only thing I can see myself doing is extending the length of his arms by an inch or 2. I will post more pics when I get home this afternoon.
