    This is a plaster skull I poured ( the same one as in the "skulls for pennies" tutorial) , gorilla glued to a board, then spread around wet plaster with a spoon to create the texture, then painted it up.

    Once again, I fall short of knowing what to do with it. It can be used as a plaque for a dungeon, lab, crypt, ect.. But I just want to go farther with it.

    I was thinking, maybe add hooks for a coat hanger? Hang prop tools...meat cleavers, saws, whatever.
    Turn it into a sign? "No costume no candy" type thing..

    How about making 4 more & make a jack in the box ( one for the lid) & then have the sign pop up. Very Very Cool!!!

    Make several more plus some without a skull...then use as the back splash for your kitchen counter.
    Or maybe as the top cover of a spell book.
    So many ideas....Too little storage space

    Add some red under counter lighting, that would look really good.

    Great job on that......The "Pirate" in me sees a nice eye patch and a set of crossed bones beneath the skull......!
    Thank ye matey, from the bottom of me scurvy heart......"One Eye'd" Mick

    The ships' doctor warned me that I've been partaking in too much wine, women and song and told me that I should cut back a bit.........I am really going to miss the singing.....

    One Eyed- I wouldn't expect any less from you...it screams patch and crossbones!
    Billman- .......buuuurp...mancave item for sure.
    Candee and Frankefrog, get the little lady here to go along and its a go!
    Death Dealer- COOL! come over and help, we start at 5am. Bring Billman, it sounds like he has some beer.
    BooBoo- I love the thought of that, I would want it to have a crank and play that vintage jack-in the-box (pop goes the weasel) song. Im toast when it comes to pnuematics or electronics.. Hmmm, good one tho. (Couldnt you just picture some corpse-clown pop out!!)

    Thanks for the input all, theres some creative people out there!

    Love the spell book idea!! I also like the scary Jack in the box idea!
    You could do so much with this! A box covered with the plaster and a few of these would make a great witch shelf or a place to put a few JOL's... (depending on how big they are) very cool!

    CHOP - you've got the talent, just crank out whatever fits your whimsy. Inspiration is devine, (or devious) the uses will come to you when you really need it. It is always better to have "it" on hand than to make it at the last moment. Ask anyone here, there is no such thing as a useless prop, only parts that are re-use-less. HM
    You said you wanna what? with who? I don't think so!
