where did you get the foam for the bowls? or did you just glue smaller pieces together?

Thank you! This was the first carving of this size I have attempted. I was lucky to get several large pieces of dock foam from a fellow haunter last year. The foam was fairly dense and carved well.

Very nice indeed. Great sculpting

Great job, looking at the finished pictures would never guess it was foam.

Son of a ghostship!

Why am I shopping for planters and fountains at stores???

Ima just make it!!! Brilliant!

And folks, if you go to your local or not-so-local Tractor Supply Co., you can ask them for the big blocks of foam that are used as spacers between their trailers. They ship the trailers stacked 5 high, and the foam just rests between their frames on the delivery truck. Last time I went, they had HUNDREDS of blocks at their back fence line waiting for trash pickup. I had my pick of the litter. They're easily 10" x 10" and maybe 18" long. Solid white clean foam.
