Very nicely done! Love the stylized skull on top. Is that one store-bought or did you make it? If so, is it foam or papier mache?

Took me a second to make the connection between the title of the thread and your pictures. You made these out of shipping boxes??? Awesome
Yeah, they're boxes and sorry for the vague title.
Coulors: The Skull is a paper mache skull I made earlier this year. Wasn't sure what I was going to use it for till i made these.

Ummm I have a ton of them so I'm not sure but it might have been Trajan Pro.
That prolly hurts.
Nice!
Thank You!
Thanx!
that's not work, that was fun
Save the trees!
Thanx! I'm hoping the spar varnish Iused on them holds up for the week or so that they will be outside.

Every year I say I'm going to take home the entire box of Fed Ex boxes & do this because it's so simple & easy. We have way too many Fed Ex boxes (we generally use UPS) so if they started disappearing no one would know or care, especially since I'm the one that does the shipping & ordering.

Screws that will hold onto foam?
Halloween PropsI sometimes need to attach things to foam. In one instance it was a foam tombstone that I needed to attach to a thin plywood base, so it would stand up on a stage. Many years ago, I recall seeing someone use what I thought were drywall screws. But, that didn't hold at all on the polystyrene...- 19

Life size figures.
Halloween PropsHey guys, I interviewed this gentleman who had a giant collection. The reason I am posting it in props is because, he makes 1:1 Scale characters and they are very good. He also sells them so check it out. We see a bunch of them in the interview.- 0

Photo Op Scare Props
Halloween PropsHave you created any photo ops and incorporated scare props? we had folks taking pictures with some of our static props (crypts, Corpses, mausoleum), so I wanted to build something specifically for photo ops. I’ve seen the electric chairs that vibrate/flash when unsuspecting ToTs sit down...- 10
