Some Closeup Details of my Newest Tombstone Build

Just wanted to post some closeups to show the really stone-like details of the most recent tombstone. I just finished the paint with some drybrushing last night. I have to thank Terra and her awesome tutorial on painting tombstones.

great job what are the cherubs & skulls made out of?

The skulls where both taken from plastic skull heads that I just removed the bottom jaws, and cut the faces off of with a hot wire cutter. The horns on the lower skull, I made out of Styrofoam. The upper, open mouth ghost looking face on the cross was a Styrofoam head I cut the face from. The cherubs are a lightweight plaster I casted in some molds I found at Michaels. I was lucky to find the molds to make both a left and a right one.

I noticed I didn't take a picture of the third skull on the stone, so here's a pic of the whole stone.
