A little holiday project I've been working on the past few days inspired by a Christmas ornimat that I saw online.
Thanks to the holiday weekend I get four days to work on what will become "Santar"


I feel like I hoard headless animals of customs past, but every now and again I will find a use for them haha.
Torso from an wrestling action figure, and a cast of a balljoint (because I HATE workig with the small double balljoint heads)
The head I ended up using is a variant of a GI Joe Shipwreck


Sand the hell out of them and stick, glue, then sculpt it in.

Okay, this is just amusing. I can't wait to see how it turns out though.

Just some more detail on this Santaur that I have been working on.
I was a little concerned at how Shipwreck would transition into a Santa head, but after the beard/stache everything started to take form.


With the hat just about done,  I'm still trying to figure out how to transition the body and horse.
One thing's for sure is that I think I will need to sand some detail into the sculpted hair of the horse to help it transition a little smoother.

Wow, your combinations never cease to amaze.

I can't help it. So does this guy pull his own sleigh?

Twas the weekend before Christmass and all through the house...


Santaur, the final product. 
Added a leather belt to help the human/horse transition.
The belt buckle is a simple link to a charm bracelet (note to self, buy my wife a new charm bracelet)
Head was made from a GI Joe Shipwreck headcast and bears a striking resemblance to Chad LucasClones  ;) ;D


Santaurs Profile



Upper body has decent articulation.
I just need to play around with articulating static figures to get those horse legs moving.


Do you even lift?
Santaur ready for the season.
I hope for your sake that you're not on the naughty list.



Merry Christmas I.S.  0/
Here's to another year of oddities!
