Another tombstone??

[highbury]

Okay, so I just finished my first prop of the season, and yes, it's a tombstone. I actually updated a stone I had been using for the past four years, but I wanted to give it a little bit more zing:

I then finished it off with some spanish moss and some LED lights:

Nice. I really like it under orange/red light

[Wildcat]

Very nice job and I agree the orange is a great colour.

nice epitaph! I like the more subtle references like that

I think adding a little zing to an old tombstone is a great idea.

[Monk]

It looks really good under that orange light.

The moss and LED's are a really nice added touch, great job!

[Alucard]

The new tombstones looks great, and the eyes make it creepy!

[Resurrected]

Very cool...

[cerinad]

Great looking stone. I really like the lighting on it.

Okay, tombstone number 2 is finished!! This is the sister piece to the Pratt stone above. On this one, I used the same mache skull, but used green LED eyes. For some reason, the green seem to be much brighter than the red.

Give it up for Mr. Blasko!

Another fine tombstone! The lettering is beautifully done and I like the little embellishments you've added.

[creep factor]

Very cool! Your stones rock. Love the lettering as well. Were they stenciled or hand-painted?

[highbury]

All the lettering was stenciled (I'm good, but not that good!). I used a marker for the outlines of the letters, then went back with black paint and filled everything in.

stellar work !!!!!

AWESOME! Great job!
