Mego Cornelius

Purchased an enlarged Medicom head from Ian. Need to paint up the face and add hieroglyphs to his chest and arms. I will also add more hair to the back of his head, since I don't really like his profile.





Here is his profile after hair was added. No flash--camera sucks.

Burke's Pants

Here are five of them. The waistband and belt loops have been attached. Need to complete by adding the snaps. I have one more pair to sew, for a total of six sets, and this is done:

1:6 scale Dr. Zaius, Planet of the Apes, picking fruit...

Honey, is this good enough to eat?

1:6 scale, Virdon's Outfit, TV Series Planet of the Apes

Yes...yes...I know I need to get a better human figure...This is the Sideshow Robert Patrick doll. Handsome, isn't he? I hate how my camera is taking worse and worse photos...

The shirt material was found at Goodwill. Used to be part the sleeves of a girls shirt. Very little material to play with. It was amazing I was able to tweak four shirts out of it. The pants were part of a wool mens suit also from Goodwill. The belt/fake leather vest was a fake leather fabric purchased at Joanne's Fabric.



Here are the pants for my ape buddies who also wanted "in" on the project. I am making a total of four complete outfits: belt, vest, shirt, pants and belt pack...



Here's another interesting shot:

Zira's outfit

Check out sleeve detail, which answers how I'm going to do the venting of the sleeves. I checked out the Sideshow outfit, and it's got the same sleeve detail, which I never noticed. Per one of my ape buddies, it looks like Zira is checking out Heston's "assets" in this photo from Hunter's wonderful site.

1:6 scale Burke's outfit from TV series

Here's the blue material for his shirt. I think it's perfect:

Here it is complete. Still looking for fabric for the pants.



I re-did the top and made it longer so it could be cinched with a belt.


This is the back side:


This is his new outfit including a pair of pants from material found at a Goodwill. His new vest is shop cloth that had its dye removed and re-dyed the appropriate brown. All he needs now is the new Burke sculpt from Ada Chan once it is available, some shoes, a rope belt and maybe a backpack. His buddies, Virdon and Galen are just figments of the imagination for now.

1:6 Scale Armando's outfit from Conquest

Here is a photo of the dark brown pinwhale corduroy fabric:


I purchased a brown sweater for $3 at the same store yesterday for his turtleneck.

1:6 scale, Cornelius's Human Garb

Found the most perfect fabric for $3 at a used clothing store five minutes before they closed for the day. It is a size medium Mossimo men's shirt, probably was once sold at Target because I recognize the label.

Custom ANSA outfits, Mego-sized

One set of Mego-sized custom outfits done. Yay me! Whoot! This was VERY difficult. One outfit is hard enough, but to create three? I doubt I will do it again...
