For the play "The murder of an ex-comedian" I was asked to make a corpse on actor Kim Lantz seen above.	Head, hands and feet are all made out of silicone. I had never before made a full body so it was a fun challenge	The skeleton was made out of broom sticks, hinges, plastic tubing among tons of other things. I then built muscles with foam rubber cut into shape.
Hanging feet. Bad vibes.	The head before hair punching.	I inserted steel wire in the fingers so I can change the angle of them.
A series of portraits of the deceased.

And a couple of full body shots too.
This doll actually caused some problems. An actor decided to pull a practical joke and it went horribly wrong. He placed the doll in the café at work. Then he forgot about it. In the early morning the day after our financial boss comes in and is going to put the kettle on. He sees "Kim" sitting dead at a coffee table. He completely freaks out and calls the ambulance. The ambulance arrives and looks at him, saying "He must have been sitting there for a long time" They approach him and touch his arm. First now they realise that it's a puppet and gets really angry. "Is this some kind of f...ing joke???" Luckily after calming down they considered the emergency call to be real since he thought it was a real dead body and we didn't have to pay the false alarm fee.
