Well, here is my entry into the contest. Personally, I'm not all that happy with how the paint came out on this prop. Painting is definitely a weakness of mine and I really have to learn some better techniques before I try to finish the crypt off.

Here is the cost breakdown (paint and liquid nails have been pro-rated):
1/2 Sheet of 2" Foam: $7.04
1/6 Sheet of 1" Foam: $1.26
Tiny Amount of Liquid Nails: $0.20
1/4 Can flat white house paint: $2.62
Tiny bit of flat black house paint: $1.31
1/4 Can flat black spray paint: $1
1/4 Can grey spray primer: $1
3/8" T x 48" L Wooden dowel: $1.39
TOTAL COST: $15.82
After the contest, I may make an attempt at re-painting it with a base coat of a light grey and try adding weathering by hand with a slightly darker grey.
