New 09 props and Octfest parade float

Ok, here is a couple new props.
The first is our creepy crawly. We have him on the ceiling in a room of our haunt.... man is he cool.

I stole the idea from DeathTouch's unborn! Thanks Deathtouch.... I loved him the moment I seen him!
He turned out awsome, I think we will get some really big scares with him.

Second is our Staker tree. He's staking a vampire through the heart with his wooden finger! I have always wanted to do a tree prop and I got inspiration from him from a website I found and we just twisted it to fit our vampire theme this year.... Its about 13 ft tall. Sorry for the ugly trailer, we didnt have it cover yet at this point. He is mostly made with a wooden frame covered with chicken wire, paper and then landscape fabric and monster mud... we were going to just go with the paper, but it didnt hold up to the weight of the monster mud, so we had to find something that wouldnt tear.
I came up with the idea of the landscape fabric with worked out just awesome! It was even on sale at Menards .. buy one get one free!
His face is the pink foam ... about 7 pieces thick! I carved my butt off a couple days !!!!!!!!!! The roots coming off his face is chicken wire wrapped in the landscape fabric with MM on it.

Hope you like them. I'm so glad to have these two done.
My 3 axis is done too and I may get pics of him up... I mounted him on a skeleton and he is singing a little of Ozzys black Sabbath song! Its great!

Sorry Deathtouch..... I love him and he's staying right here! lol!

I forgot.... in the pics of him.....he wasnt quite done... I did get hands and feet on him...
He was such an easy project! For his rib cage.. I used a plastic rib cage from a blucky skeleton I had. It was perfect for him. Made him seem very slender and gave a good definition to the ribs.

Next year.... he is gonna move !
