PRODUCT INFORMATION

Details:

This prop was first cast in latex from our original mold. Once cast, he was then detailed by hand. An outer coat of "rotted flesh" is applied and textured. His rotted eyelids and empty sockets are completely handmade.  Not only does this ensure the best detail possible but it also guarantees that each one will have a unique quality all it's own. No two will ever be exactly alike!

This prop was painted by hand to bring out every detail and the hair was applied by hand. For maximum realism, acrylic fingernails were attached to his fingers.

Measurements:

Grandpa Earl is approximately 5' 10" from head to toe. Being a withered old man, he is a bit smaller than our other characters.   His head and hands are fully detailed. The body form which includes the torso, PVC arms and PVC legs are NOT detailed but this does not show since he is fully clothed,

Clothing:

Grandpa Earl comes clothed in a suit and hat in the style shown in the photos. Clothing may vary slightly in color but is very close to that of the models. The hat and clothing was "aged" to look appropriate for an old corpse hanging in the hot sun for long periods of time. The clothing can be removed so he can be clothed in different styles to create any character you want!

Limbs:

Grandpa Earl's arms and legs are made from PVC pipe which was padded to give it the bulk of a full sized body. The arms are wired at the elbows so they can be put in various positions.  The arms are not permanently attached to the body however. This allows you to fix them in a variety of positions. PVC connectors are included which allow you to simply slip the arms onto the body. They can be cemented with PVC cement if you want a permanent bond but keep in mind this would permanently fix them in place.

The legs each come in two sections as they are not permanently attached at the knee area. This is so you have the option of putting him in both standing and sitting positions. He will stand on his own with the PVC legs but if you plan to stand him in place for long periods of time, you may wish to attach his feet to a platform to prevent him from tipping over.

WE ALSO OFFER A LESS EXPENSIVE VERSION THAT INCLUDES THE HEAD & HANDS ONLY

If you wish to create the prop body yourself, you can purchase the head and hands only. A PVC connector is embedded in the neck part of the head and the hands are built on 1" PVC pipe which will allow easy attachment to a PVC body or frame.
