Building The Frankenstein Monster Part II
Finding the right Mannequin is harder than you might think.
Very few manufacturer's design these with the idea of a Frankenstein Monster in mind. So while the one on the far left MIGHT work-- it sort of looks like he's about to launch in to Master of The House from Les Miserables.
I want something more iconic for the pose-- this one for example-- its iconic:
Ha! I joke. Although the idea of the monster playing baseball is certainly cool with me-- I'm looking for truly iconic in terms of the pose.
This is the one I'm looking for. In Mary Shelley's novel, the Creature is written as being 8 feet tall, in the 1931 film Karloff was more likely 6'2" thanks to the lift of his platform boots.
After some extended searching I found this one online:
NEXT WEEK: Part III
Tomorrow: DRACULA!
