Here's my progress so far, on my first homemade prop for 2009. It is inspired by the JOL's on STOLLOWEEN . For anyone thinking about trying it, I totally recommend it. It's fun and easy and VERY inexpensive =)

Hopefully I'll get the rest of the clay on him this weekend. I'll post more pictures as I go along

It is turning out great...can't wait to see the finished product. Are you going to make anymore to go with him?

Did you use the clay recipe found on the Stolloween site, or is it just a craft clay? Once i start my ground breaker, i may give this project a try as well

I just used air hardening modeling clay. It seems to be working out well and it's easy to work with, but I'd still like to try the recipe on the Stolloween site, just to see how it differs.

Post pics if you give it a try

Yes, I plan to eventually, but since I've started working with the paper mache and the modeling clay (this is really my first time making anything with either), I've sketched out 3 other creations that I want to make using the same method, so I'll be starting on them next This project has unleashed my creative monster

Thanks! No, I did this one with a plastic grocery bag. I'll be using a garbage bag for the next one though!

 

[Curlgoddess]

Wow, that looks awesome!

Thank you so much I'm hoping to get brave (and the time) one day and try one of your awesome projects

Ok, my JOL is finally ready for water-proofing and paint!

He looks very menacing!! love it. About how long did it take to make from start to finish??

 

[lonerogue2]

Awesome job Curl. He looks absolutely terrific. Looking forward to seeing him all painted up

I've been working on it on and off for about a month. If I had worked on it a little bit every night, I probably could have finished him in about a week or two... that's taking drying time for the paper mache and the modeling clay into accoung =) Glad you like it!
