Very cool! It's like those foam heads are just asking to be sculpted into something more EVIL. Did you feel a bit cruel as your dug out that poor souls eye sockets!? Fun fun! Keep at it.

OR even cheaper fit a bag full of red wine under your arm & appear to dispense shots straight from the vein, ..you've got the kit!

I love your creativity!

I also had to chuckle at all the Halloween stores opening up in the now vacant Circuit City stores... they used one here for a Halloween store too. Sadly, they are only using at most a third of the store! They should have either filled it up with product or turned half of it into a haunted house or something!

not at all:)
i used a dremel to shave out the shape of coarse.
i then used toilet paper(as it let me get the effect i wanted super easy)and i used elmer's(PVA) glue and water 2 parts glue 1 part water twisted and bunched layers not really very many may be 3 or 4?
then i used some deep like brown mustard color and red paint in washes then went over that with a dark wood stain. after the halloween season i want to start another one and use a little lighter color stain for variation :) and thats it :)
