  1. Halloween Props
    We made a mermaid grotto and a seawitch lair this year! The fish garland were made by cutting wood fish on a laser cutter and spray painting them neon. They were then tied with jute twine along with clear plastic ornaments to make bubbles. The jellyfish were made using plastic bowls, mesh...
  2. Halloween Props
    I got this neat mermaid skeleton to practice corpsing on! My first ever corpsing project, so bare with me. This is her so far. Used heat gun + plastic sheets method. In the future I want to try the latex machè method, especially with a smaller project like this. I haven't painted her...
  3. General Halloween
    The mermaid skeleton came! She is gorgeous!!! Rather than a typical bone color, she is kind of grayish, with a bendy tail. She'll certainly look better than our old mermaid, which was a regular Bucky type, with a homemade tail. Due to a house move, we couldn't Halloween last year, and when I...

  5. Halloween Props
    I am dancing with delight! Our mermaid skeleton came today--well, yesterday--it's late, and I am absolutely happy. I was worried that she would be a cheap piece of junk, but no. She is beautiful, articulated, and a sort of weird grayish color that rather suits a sea creature. We got her from...

  7. Halloween Props
    So in lieu of a party this year, we are decorating my parent's yard and porch for Halloween. I am going with a Big Top of the Bizarre theme, as that was our party theme last year and we can re use a lot of the items! Anyhow, I found an amazing 6 ft mermaid skeleton and had an exciting idea to...

  9. Tutorials and Step-By-Step
    I've been working on a mermaid prop for a little while. However, life has gotten the best of me and I'm not as far along as I'd like to be with it. However, with that being said, I'm returning to college next week, plus working, so I will not have huge amounts of time to finish projects. So...
  10. General Halloween
    Hello there fellow haunters! I have just decided that we are going to do an underwater / mermaid / sunken ship theme for this year but I'm having trouble thinking of a fun title for it! I don't want it to be focused on pirates (although there will be some pirates!) but more underwater type...
  11. Tutorials and Step-By-Step
    I'm doing a pirate theme this year, and wanted to get a head start on my mermaid. I've got the tail and body coming along, but here is the head. I used a Styrofoam head from forever ago. It was already painted black and red..so I went with that. I used latex and cotton to get the texture...
  12. General Halloween
    So I have a pirates theme for part of my yard...and recently have been inspired with some under the sea decor (from my birthday sea witches tea party) to possibly add a mermaid area to my pirates scene. I'm thinking skeleton mermaid since all of my pirates are skeletons Has anyone ever...
  13. General Halloween
    With most of this year's prop work scattered across the HalloweenForum, and before the weekend gets too crazy and everything gets pulled down, I wanted to post a video of this year's "Surrender Yer Booty" Pirate-Themed Haunt. We have some tweaking to do before the big day, but here is a sneak...

  16. Halloween Props
    So I couldn't wait to start my mermaid and ended up getting a fabric torso & bought the head separately ( why oh why did I do that ) so I used great stuff to make skin which I shaved down but it still had uneven crevices then I used wood putty but there are cracks. I guess it could play into the...
