I picked up an old wine barrel and cut a hatch into one end of it. I am going to prop up up a half torso pirate skeleton in it holding a sword in one hand a mug of rum in the other. I also am going to stencil "XXX" on the outside of the barrel.
I just set this guy inside to see how it would look:

The ships' doctor warned me that I've been partaking in too much wine, women and song and told me that I should cut back a bit.........I am really going to miss the singing.....

I LOVE those old oak barrels! Wish I could afford to get a bunch just to have around for when I decide what I would like to do with them.

you could cut a small hole in the forearm bones of that floppy skeleton and insert a length of wire. It gives it a more solid look, I also have had some luck with trying to fill the bones with great foam but thats hit or miss, some will take foam some won't
