Katahdin..Super Styrene Smash-up!

#1 Post by Glusniffer »

Prophecy 1979. Ive mentioned several times over the years how much I love this old movie, Great cast and awesome story line based on FACTS about the mutagenic properties of methyl mercury poisoning in Minamata Japan in 1945. The downside is the monster while terrifying was a cheesy puppet. :? Last year I scored a complete raw PScenes cave bear box included because I wanted the base for my Sleestak. I had no thoughts or ideas for the bear until I had a dream one night. Here's the results. This a hodge-podge of the bear, neanderthal man, the old Aurora black bear, (Cubs) an x-tra vampirella arm and some 2-part epoxy clay and some ultra lite sculpey.
Scenario...There's a scene in the movie where they investigate a family of campers that were killed in the forest.They discover two infants, one dead and one alive on the river bank.

Dude ... Jeff ... That is some of the most creatively demented insane stuff that I have seen posted on the clubhouse in a long while. ๐Ÿ˜ฑ

No, I'm not going to watch the movie, but I am going to tip my hat to you sir, because this is beyond being merely imaginative, and rises to rarified heights of bashing. ๐Ÿ˜

Let me see if I can find enough emojis to express this visually for you ๐Ÿ˜‰ Here goes nothing:

๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿฅณ๐Ÿค—โšก๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŽ‡๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ˜›๐Ÿ’ฅ๐ŸŽ†๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽŠ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿ‘€๐Ÿช„๐Ÿ˜€๐ŸŒŸ๐Ÿฅง๐Ÿ˜ฎโ˜ ๏ธ๐Ÿ‘น๐Ÿ‘บ๐Ÿ’ซโญ๐ŸŒŸโœจโšก๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ‘๏ธ๐Ÿซฆ

I may have missed a few, but ... You'll get the idea. ๐Ÿคฃ

OMG!
You knocked that out of the ballpark man!

That looks great. Really captures the feel of that old movie.
