Stolloween.com who has come to the Great Lakes Fright Fest for several years and has wowed
us with his paper mache art work inspired me to try my hand at it.
Below are based on his instructional at the above web site.
These start out as plastic bags stuffed with news paper. Then stripped mached with paper mache paste.
The 3-D appearances are paper mache clay.
Several layers are put on with ample time for them to dry in between layers. When over all appearance is
acchived it is hit with a latex flat black coat of paint.
The stem is from a paper towel roll hot glued to the top. The vines are paper towel dipped
in paper mache paste and twisted and placed in desired appearance
When ready hit the whole pumpkin with orange latex using the dry bushing technique. use green latex paint
for vines using dry brushing. When all that is done hit with a heavy layer of Spar Urethane
water seal. HAPPY HAUNTING.
