Ira Posted October 24, 2014 Author Posted October 24, 2014 Pretty cool! I think I'm about to start a Freddy Flameout pretty soon myself. Bought the thing a decade ago, and then decided I just couldn't live with the head, which doesn't look much like the box art (which actually looks kinda cool). But just today, in the Halloween section at Walmart, I found something I think will make a much better head for Freddy.... Thanks! Yeah, these Halloween Builds are Great Fun...

Ira Posted October 25, 2014 Author Posted October 25, 2014 Prime Time! After a little more Sanding I applied a couple coats of DupliColor Filler/Primer. This helps to fill minor imperfections. Next I applied two coats of White Primer. Paint By Numbers! I drew the Paint Lines on Frankie. This makes painting the different areas a little easier. The Other Side. More Coming...
Ira Posted October 26, 2014 Author Posted October 26, 2014 Frankie's Eyes! I started painting Frankie's T Shirt with Vallejo Flat Black Paint. Side 2... Almost Forgot his Eyes! I drilled out Frankie's Eyes so I can add Fiber Optics later. More Coming...

Ira Posted October 28, 2014 Author Posted October 28, 2014 (edited) Flower power? Flowers in the Water... I remember a "Frankenstein" and I think maybe the "Young Frankenstein" Movie where Frank and a little girl were throwing Flowers in the water together, but they soon ran out of Flowers. Next thing you know Frank is throwing the girl in the water. Frankie has more Flowers...Want to Play? Edited October 30, 2014 by Ira
bobthehobbyguy Posted October 28, 2014 Posted October 28, 2014 Frankie looks a little bit like Bart Simpson.
Ira Posted October 29, 2014 Author Posted October 29, 2014 (edited) A vase ? Is he going courting ? : ) Thanks Ray! Frank is bringing more Flowers to play the "Throwing it in the Water Game". He seemed like a Gentle Monster at heart... Edited October 29, 2014 by Ira

Ira Posted November 1, 2014 Author Posted November 1, 2014 Blood Shot Eyes! I found an easy way to paint Blood Shot Eyes. I use Vallejo Acrylic paint, thinned with water, and applied with a Toothpick. These Multi-Color Toothpicks don't absorb much paint, so you can paint a pretty Fine Line with them. I painted Frankie's Eyes and Teeth with a Clear Gloss Enamel. After the Enamel dried I applied some Black Wash around the Eyes. More Coming...
Ira Posted November 1, 2014 Author Posted November 1, 2014 Staples! Frankie's Scars along the forehead are Stapled together. I made the Staples with RC Stripping Tape. I brushed a coat of Dullcote over the Staples to help hold them in place. More Coming...

Ira Posted November 2, 2014 Author Posted November 2, 2014 Nothing in This Hand! I decided to get rid of the Vase, so I removed it with a Dremel Tool. Then I glued a piece of plastic in the carved out area and smoothed out the Palm with some Aves Apoxy. this stuff is very thick and you cam work with it for a couple hours before it gets hard. I like this product, especially for repairing a painted Model. Here is the Palm after a little clean up and paint. Look no Vase! Here is the back of his Hand, Finished! More Coming...
Ira Posted November 2, 2014 Author Posted November 2, 2014 Making the Base! I started with a lid to a Cookie Can and sprayed it Flat Brown. Next I smeared some White Glue on the Base. After the Glue Dried I smeared more White Glue on to create more texture. Then I sprinkled some "Earth", brown sawdust, on the wet glue. I bought the "Earth" from the local Hobby Shop in the Trains Department. More Coming...
