SCALE

FIGHT!!

FUNNY?

DETAILS
When we were discussing scale, I thought "what if I stay in 6 inch scale just go for a big character?" That's when Mangog came to mind. At first I didn't think it would be possible because I couldn't think of a buck big enough. Then I remembered the rotocast Hulk from the first movie. Scored a cheapy off ebay and then I started planning. The first thing I noticed when looking at the reference pics was that there were dozens of interpretations of him. Not even Kirby drew him consistently, let alone the colorists who made it up as they went. In the end I picked the bits I liked best and made a reference board.

When I pantsed him his whole groin area was actually small, so I sculpted a layer of green stuff over the area to create pants. I then used plasticard to make a belt.
I removed the head, leaving the neck so articulation would remain. Chopped most of the hands and feet off. Because he's hollow I shoved 'green Stuff' in the cavities and added wire as an armature to build on. Then came night after night of sculpting some areas, then leaving it 24 hours to harden. Then doing a little more. The head required about 9 sessions to sculpt and that doesn't involve the sessions where I sanded his teeth to be jagged, etc. Sculpted the hands and feet to look like they're poking out of his costume as he has weird sock thingies.
The tail is the back half of some cheap wooden snake. Glued into the shape I wanted. It's attached to Mangog via magnets so it's removable and retains articulation.
The base is something I whipped up during those times I was waiting around for paint or glue to dry.
Then I spent hours and hours and hours sanding. First on the rotary tool, then with sandpaper. Ugggh.....what a horrible job. Then priming and painting.
