Hi Newt, I spent three days working on each of those. The fully corsped ground riser is made from those Blucky bag of bones that come with 2 heads, some arm bones and 2 hands. I didn't use the hands as I made my own using airline tubing and wire. All I did with the skull was cut open the eye area with my dremel so that I could insert the ping pong eyes,and cut some of the teeth out. The rib cage is made out of flexable metal tubing. The rest is just cotton and diluted mold building latex layers. Once it was all corpsed I just tore some of the latex in spots to look like hanging skin and dyed the latex with minwax stain. A little acrylic paint and a coat of polyurethane. The other ground riser head was made from a styrofoam wig head which I purchased at Sally's Beauty supply shop for $2.99. I used a a dollar store soldering iron to melt out the eyes, nose and mouth area. The teeth are homemade as well. I have discovered how to make them using airline tubing and hot glue. Same technique was used as the first using cotton and paper-towelling to build up the features.
