link I used installation foam to make a blob monster. It was left over from a home improvement project.
The monster is about four inches across and very durable, and it was free. Mike Bunkermeister Creek

That brings back memories from the early 1970's… I remember watching the movie, "The Blob." Great rendition of it, as far as I remember it! Thanks for jarring that very old memory from my youth. LOL! Cheers! |

I guess spray paint doesn't dissolve the insulation like it does some foam products. If that's the case, there are some real possibilities there! Grelber |

The original movie was made in my area, my mother worked at that grocery store when I was a very young kid.
The original didn't have eyes but it might help those not familiar with the original |

Hmm… also looks like the "baby" form of an Awful Green Thing from Outer Space. (Fittingly, there was a one page "expansion" featuring The Obnoxious Orange Thing from Another Place.) |

Made me think of the giant amoeba in the lake from Angry Red Planet. |

Thank you all for your comments. Yes, Wolfshanz, MRS Bunkermeister and I just watched that a few weeks ago, always a favorite. I was thinking about it when I was painting this. I may have to see about buying miniature squid or octopi and give it a go!
So many options for such a simple model. Bunkermeister |
