![]() Note that these gloves are *not* where your hands are going to go, they're just the frozen Han's hands.įirst: Decide exactly where you want the hands to "surface" and exactly how you want them to lay. That's what I used for Han's hands, since it seemed easy and convincing. Now that the clothes are ready, prepare the gloves. But feel free to use whatever attachment method you prefer, and get everything tucked away and tacked on. Oh right! I just used a bunch of safety pins to attach the clothing, and they were more than sufficient given my fabric/foam box. Play around with it, get a head inside there while you're doing it, and once it's perfect, cut it and pin it. I ended up having to cut out the back and do some pretty awkward adjustments in front, and it still didn't come out exactly the way I'd have liked. The trickiest part was getting the collar right. This is Han Solo we're talking about, after all. Get it out of sight and get it looking good. I just used bubble wrap, but anything light will work. In order to get the full picture, you're going to need to stuff the shirt and pants with something at this point. You might even want to position the gloves there right now to see what this whole thing is going to look like later. Make sure to leave room for Han's hands to surface somewhere - they're a key element and need to be in the right place. But don't try to do this ahead of time do it as you're laying the clothes on the box, so as to get the most realistic end-result. ![]() Note that where Han's leg goes "beneath" the surface of the carbonite, the clothing has to vanish from the surface, meaning cutting your clothing along that very margin. A few wrinkles are not a bad thing as they give surprising textural credibility to the "carbonite." You can probably do a better job than I did modeling Han Solo's outfit & his clothing's position if you watch the film while doing this, but I just went with what I remembered. Since this is all going to be spray-painted in the end, color doesn't matter much, but I went with some silver&gray clothes anyway, just in case.
