I started with a basic wire frame clamped to my work bench
Detail of the ribcage
Detail of the hand, little finger yet to be added
The wire frame gets attached to a cross bar then on goes the papier-mâché
Detail
The ribcage is done
Arms and hands are done
Side view
Everything gets two coats of black spray paint
More colors are added to make it look more like weathered bone. Then I gave it all two coats of spray polyurethane and then glued on a few bits of moss.
I bought a plastic pumpkin for the head
A little carving
I then put in a color changing LED that I took out of a cheep Halloween decoration I found in a discount store
It looks so cool in the dark
Now for some paint to make it look a little more evil
Then I put them all together and added some shreds of black gauze
Halloween night
