I found a cool and clever way to make a life sized mannequin
without breaking the bank... with some old clothes, duct tape, a TRUSTED assistant, and stuffing of your choice (although I don't recommed manure!! LOL)

Here's the link folks, DO check it out!! Very Happy

Hey, I remember that! I wonder what ol' Vince is up to these days.

Anyway, duct tape dummies are great for display purposes or making costumes on, but don't try to use one for sculpting armor. Wink

Thanks Tony for posting that! Great way to make a cheap-o mannequin. Now, how to loose 20 pounds, and bulk up the biceps, and legs... Hmmm.
