#overhead animator

Finally got all the animation going well in the facade window. Mr P built the overhead animator (not shown, but it's what is moving all the props) and the eyeball trunk. I painted the moving picture, and prepped/painted the skelly marionette. We worked together to get everything hooked up to the animator correctly. I'll be working on the set dressing today, if all goes according to plan.

Free tutorials for the animator, trunk, and chained skelly can be found on the Halloween DIY & How-To YouTube channel.

We're in the process of attaching the skelly marionette to the overhead animator. Currently only the head & guy wires are attached; later there will be wires for the arms and yet-to-be-attached chains. Project tutorial by Halloween DIY & How-To on YouTube (two videos; one for the animator & one for the chained skelly). Still some tweaking to do but I think it will all work out in the end.
