First mini' for casting!

For some time now I've wanted to have a cast of my own sculpt. Now that I've found a potential caster I'm making plans to make this happen! As my first cast I plan to make a clown, similar to these guys:

Any preferences from the following sketches?

First of all, let's have a show of hands for 'custard pie clown'?!

I rather like the clown holding the dolly with his arse hanging out his trousers....very creepy dodgy looking. It appeals to my sense of humour :D

Keep the opinions coming guys!

In the meantime, as food for thought, here are some custard pie based sketches:

Edit: ...and another set of sketches, based on my first Evil Clown:

The bat would be held fairly close to the body, possibly to allow for casting as a single unit.

I like the marionette! Otherwise, I'd vote for a zombie clown like in Zombieland. ")

One piece molds I dislike. Just makes things so difficult to modify, ESPECIALLY when the weapon is pressed up against the body, that's the worst because there's no way to change anything without a ton of work and destruction. No idea on how much the cost to cast changes, but if it isn't a whole lot, multiple parts are the way to go, IMHO.
