Thread: My first try at tombstones and coffin

Tweet

Here is my first try at making tombstones and a partial coffin for my graveyard scene. Let me know what you think

Everything looks great. The tombstones definitely look like they belong in a very old graveyard.

some more tombstones and another angle of the coffin

Very impressive!

Excellent work!! I'm really liking those tombstones...

Very nice!

Excellent! I especially like #1 and #2 in your photo order.

Excellent work! I like the coffin (it appears you built it to be partially sticking out of the ground? Great effect!). Your tombstones look very, very nice. I do have one suggestion; the moss on the tombstones looks good, but make sure it doesn't look like it only appears on the tombstones. Scatter some pieces in various well-lit sections of the yard so it looks more like a native plant to your yard. This makes the "seam" between prop and environment blur and lends more reality to your scene. Good job and happy haunting!

I agree, I plan to have moss and vines in the scene as well as on the iron fence surrounding it. I also made some of the PVC candles (red, white and black) with tea lights. I hope for it to look like a very old cemetery scene with some skeletal parts and a 6 foot grim reaper I picked up from Spirits last year.

Great stuff! Awesome work!
