NECA The Evil Dead Toy Poster

Well, here's my feeble attempt at recreating the original Evil Dead movie poster. If you have a REALLY SUPER HD monitor this just might look terrible, lol, I tried anyway.

 

Few pieces of info to note. The hands in the foreground were not added in with Photoshop, those were in camera when I shot this. I have two of the Ed Getley figures and had one standing on either side of the camera when I took this. Ash is the Ultimate Evil Dead 2 figure released a few years ago, but I was never happy with the skin tone they used so when I got a few new Ash figures from the boxed set I swapped the torso out from inside the shirt so I could use the new heads without the neck being a totally different color. Next, the hands are actually from the recent Ultimate Part 2 Jason figure NECA put out and that was necessary so Ash could hold the chainsaw. Speaking of the chainsaw, that is the NECA Texas Chainsaw Massacre the Beginning Leatherface's chainsaw that I repainted to look more gory.

 

I tried to emulate the pose Bruce used for the cover as best I could but this figures arms are very hindered with the shoulders of his shirt. You can see how out of shape they are when I pushed his arms up as hard as possible. I used real film poster credits taken from a picture of the film poster and then typed the Stephen King quote manually. All things considered and not having a stand in for terrified Linda, I think this turned out well. Took me an hour to find an Evil Dead font as a transparency to use as well. Anyway, hope you all like it!
