Texas Chainsaw Massacre Life-sized Display Leatherface

[sirbrad]

*Work in progress* Making this post as a placeholder since there will be a ton of pics. This is a cool project that I had planned for a long time now that I finally started on. Will take awhile, but will be doing it as I get time. I ordered a lot of Halloween props that will all be repainted to look more realistic, and I plan on doing a life-sized diorama and costume, reminiscent of the 1974 Movie Maniacs McFarlane Series 4 Leatherface figure, plus more. Still gathering up some materials and will be making everything when I get time. Will also be using these and some other items for a mask display for all my Leatherface masks. Should be fun!

Some of the props so far with their standard bad mass-produced paint ups. Will be repainting all of them most likely, and making the wood look more real and the blades like aged steel and rusted possibly. Lots more to come!

those butcher meat hooks will make a great aditon in the diorama no doubt... I'd like to get a set of those just to hang from my ceiling. Very cool. Good luck with the project!

Thanks, I love how they big they are. I could make real ones but they would be too heavy to hang just anywhere. I like the oversized look yet lightweight. I might also get more to hang around later.


Some more props, slaughtering hook, severed hands, and a paint bucket. I was going to use a real metal one but did not see the need to spend that much on one as I will probably discard it anyway when I run out of room. So will be making one that is disposable but looks cool.

CFX gloves which I wanted for a LONG time, custom painted for Leatherface and works great for human Jason and other characters.
