It is about time you bring that thing out. I would like to place my order for two please. I know this isn't customer service, but I had try. Awesome prop man. All you spent was 7.50? I pay more for Denny's Grand Slam breakfast than 7.50. I am almost at my limit now. How did you keep it at 7.50?

it's mostly newspaper, and super watered down elmers glue. a little goes a long way.

With all that stuff, it almost looks like what a band of Halloween campers might use if they are on the hike. They might need a little more TP, but it is close.

I don't mind Jeff. Does it require any work on my part?..... I am dreadfully lazy.:D

like a PDF? or something of that nature. Sounds like work, and writing, and stuff. I'll try to come up with something, but writing how-to's are not my cup of meat.I really won't have time to put anything together for a while though. Trying to follow my instructions could very well prove to be counterproductive.

You used my painting tips to paint your entry?

Oh man, no more how-to's, they will be my downfall :D

If you just number your pics in the order you want, along with your how to, I'll take care of the rest.

Hey Jeff,

I think I will have to postpone the how-to idea. I think I would rather make a how to with a little bit more info and better step-by step pics. the next creature I make will be done with this in mind. or at least I'll take some more pics during the next project, to fill in the gaps of this one. so it will be a little while.
