I made a sign that could hang on the light post that is next to my house.

Nice! Will you light that from behind to show the letter cutouts? That would be a nice addition to the effect....

hey! where'd the skeleton's feet go?????

[Lilly]

yeah where are his feet?
good idea Dave will make it pop.

[skeletonowl]

[Lady Nyxie]

Looks great.

[CerysCrow]

Nice! Good idea.

[Spookkid]

The skeletons feet broke off when i dropped it, I didnt have anything to fix it, so I put it off, and now, the feet are lost.

Good thing that skelley is setting down. Hard to walk with no feet, you know.

[Lakeside Haunt]

Nice work it looks awesome too bad the feet are gone though:(

[Ghoulbug]

Good job spookkid...who says a skelli has to have feet? i thinkit looks good just the way it is.

[scareme]

Looks good kid. I really like it at night with the light shining through.

[Lagrousome]

I love the letters cut out with the lighting behind them!
That effect would work good with alot of things!
I think I just got inspired for a tombstone with the letters cut out and maybe a small light behind it.....or maybe a flickering type light.....oooooo, the ideas are becoming to swirl around in my head.....

[Lagrousome]

BTW.....
GREAT JOB!
So young and talented! I was only playing with barbies at 14....not thinking how to hack them and turn them into a prop! I should have started soooooo long agooooo!!!

[Beepem]

[Ms. Wicked]

[Spooklights]
