[Devil]

We will be doing corpsing at our next M&T. You will need an item(s) to corpse skulls, bones, etc.. large cotton balls, liquid latex or waterproof glue, black and brown paint and wood stain.

Just one question Where?:D

[Devil]

Thats a good question... I don't know how many more outside M&T we will be having.

[Devil]

Just one question Where?:D

It's at your house...! It's time to move the M&T inside..!

[trishaanne]

NOOOOO...run for it!!! We did corpsing INSIDE at my house and by dinner time there weren't 4 functioning brain cells between the 12 of us here!!!

Just kidding (kind of). I hope you guys have a great M&T. Don't forget to post pics. I can't do anymore until December, so I'll be looking for pics from all of them.

We will be in a garage... so it's now a rain or shine event.

We can have it inside or out depending on the weather Has any one else seeen how to corpse with plastic? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69p2EyS-5qk this seems so much easier let me know what you all think

[grimghost]

Yes, I have a 5ft Skeleton to demo it on. I got it from Walgreens for $30.00. I will pick up some 7 mil plastic from Lowes before the meeting. If we have time after "regular" corsping, I can demo it for the group (I have a heat gun).

The only concern I had was that the plastic on this skeleton is NOT thick. I emailed the guy at Stillbeast studioes (AllenH on Hauntforum) to see if he thought the plastic of the skeleton would melt before the 7 mil. He said it should not be a problem, but if I wanted I could wrap the skeleton section (i.e. rib cage) a few times in 7 mil plastic before heat shrinking it.

Guys let me know if this sounds good.

Hey guys yesterday we meet a guy who was selling his props because of legal reasons. But we got so really good props. Anyway we were telling him about the make & take & he wants to come check it out. I gave him the address & he said he would like to come. Also the weather permitting we can do it on the deck or in the garage. either way we'll have Hamburgers & hot dogs for lunch. I will see you all Sat oh by the way What time?:confused:

[Da Weiner]

We usually start at 10 a.m. Hamburger and hot dogs sound great. Can I make a pasta salad to bring with me?

[Weeping angel]

Talked to Mark/Devil about the water-resistant gluse to get. He said Elmer's wood glue (tan/teal color) is the one to get. Here is a picture.

Hope this clarifies things

[Weeping angel]

The plastic corpsing technique looks neat - especially if you're going for volume. I'm glad I got a bag of bones - hoping to try out both.

[Allen H]

Sounds like a blast guys! Wish I were in Jersey!

[Devil]

I will bring my heatgun if anyone wants to do the plastic corpsing.

[Desmodus]

Hey, where do you guys usually meet up? I'm in Delran, Burlington County.

[Devil]

This time we are meeting in Mt Laurel, NJ about 20 mins from you. Let us know if you want to join us. We will send address.
