Thanks a million for all the compliments.The mannequin was a ton of work but it had the Freddy pose that I really wanted.-The mannequin was modified on both arms to get the arm pose that I wanted.-Both arms were cut and fiber glassed back together with a little (body work). -I had to modify the mannequin right hand so that I could get the glove on and be able to pose the fingers.-The face of the mannequin was removed so that it did not come in contact with the prop eyes.-I also had to fabricate the metal base because it was missing when I had purchased the mannequin.-I cut carpet for the base to look like the classic sweater stripe pattern.I originally wanted to cut open the shirt to display my Chest Of Souls but changed my mind because I did not want to destroy a high end sweater. The sweater that I cut was a lower end one and I decided not to use it.This display is a part three theme and I take my favorite parts from that era of Elm movies to suit what I prefer.It may not be 100% accurate but this is what I wanted for the overall look.
