Mad Doctor Set

The last few days I have been building a Dr. Frankestien-ish set for a photo shoot. I love working on projects like this! It's right up my alley. Below is a quick pic of everything in progress. It doesn't look like much at this point, but it will in a few days.

Snowman Skeleton

Below is a quick pic of a photo prop I am working on that doesn't look like much at this point. It's on the way to becoming a snowman. This is just the base skeleton that will be underneath all the fake snow, batting and chicken wire.

Scarecrow Head Process

Here are some pictures of the process I used for making the scarecrow head for the Atlanta Botanical Gardens. I tried to make it as durable as possible since it will be outside for a full month.

I started with a large plastic Easter egg with wood through the middle and then filled with spray foam to keep everything in place.


Then I added Model Magic to the egg to get all the face features.


Then I covered the whole head with muslin fabric dipped in waterproof glue.


Then covered the head with burlap dipped in waterproof glue for the final look.


For the last step I added paint to give it a finished look.
