I decided to make a pumpkinrot scarecrow to put over my grave grabber prop as someone mentioned. So I thought I'd use a 5gal bucket for the ribcage and then cover it with some brown paper and sticks. Here's a pic of it so far.

That's pretty cool.

That's pretty clever, nice job!

Wow, that's the easy way to do it! I assume you kinda crush it a little bit so it's wider than it is deep? Would you say that ribcage is about the size of an average male?

One of those why didn't I think of that moments. Nice job.

 

[Dogbite]

Yes, I used a heat gun on the sides and pushed it in a little.

I woke up wondering how to make a good ribcage. Thank you.

Went to the lake this afternoon for some free driftwood and it looks like I'll have to go back tomorrow for a couple more ribs.

What did you used to cut it out?

 

[Dogbite]

A jigsaw with a med-fine blade.

Now I know what to do with that bucket with a cracked bottom! Great idea. Thank you.

A few years ago someone did the same thing with a rubber trashcan. Easier to cut with just a knife and already torso shaped.

Genius!!!!!

I wish you had posted this about a month ago when I was fighting with chicken wire.

Wow, that looks fantastic! I love the driftwood.

I would spray it with great stuff and then just paint..that is a very quick easy pump rot..I like it!

 

[Dogbite]

The ribs are done and I think I got enough driftwood today to finish it up.

 

[Dogbite]

Just about finished.

 

[OctoberDream]

That is a fantastic idea! I would have never thought of that.
thank you for sharing.

Wow, awesome idea. I'm definitely doing that.
