Skeleton Owl- already have a mask of sorts made from that ..I think it is on forum somwhere . Maybe in hot glue ideas ..thats where I first thought of doing the snake thing.
Turtle - okay on the how to , it's pretty easy I think
Hawks- I would say about 4hrs total I made at work for 3 days off and on maybe 10 -15 minutes at a time
Budman-- good name, close to what I had ..I screwed up on the title when I sent it in.
sry if i missed anyone

I could not dig my blacklights out so you will have to wait till I get set up to see what's in store for this guy. (and couple of his friends.)

[scareme]

Looks lovely Lilly, you lunatic. I'm just amazed to know what goes on inside your mind. You never cease to suprise me.

[Silent Requiem]

The hot glue princess bows to her highness, lily the hot glue queen.
The ideas you give me...wish I'd thought of that before i started my project.

[HrdHeaded1]

All Hail to the Hot Glue Queen.. wow.. I'm not scared of snakes, but if I was a lil tot and came across that guy.. I wouldn't be to fond of him, but thank god I am an adult and would LOVE to see the faces of those lil tots heheheh.. Great job and what a price too!!

[beelce]

OUTSTANDING Lilly...Your little snake has so much character...your technique is inspirational...I love to watch you work...thanks!!

I agree, thats what I thought too, like a shed snake skin, but still alive!! What a incredible job, I never in a million years would of thought to make that, you are so creative!! Can't wait to see it with the black light!!

[Phil]

I really dig this - it is cool and extremely unique. The patience alone indicates an irreversibly disturbed mind. You did a great job.

[BoysinBoo]

Lilly, just wanted to tell you again how much I loved your prop (and voted for it BTW). The fact that it cost 10 times less than the other entries alone puts it in a class that is second to none. You really did a great job!
