    I think they turned out great.

    If i could offer up a suggestion though, try spraying them with water from a spray bottle and them misting the grave with black and grey spray paint to give it an old weathered look. Other than that very nicely done.

    Wow! Those are your first attempts? Beautiful job!

    I agree with Big Nick - the only thing I'd do is a little bit of weathering to make them look a little less new, but that's strictly my opinion - they will be beautiful out in your graveyard on a spooky fall night!

    Wow! Those are great for a "first time".

    Ah, I still remember my first time, such wonderful memories.

    Aging would be good, and there are several methods, but the carving and construction look great! Keep it up.

    Very nice. I think I would leave one un-aged and put a fresh mound of dirt in front of it.
