What do we have here?
So we ready a set of spider legs and claws for one type of brain monster and
a pair of wings and a stinger tail for the other type.
And we assemble them. And we add a base with a drywall anchor glued to it. This
will be the bases for the flying ones.
Grey brains? Yep. Grey brains.
But not just grey. The walkers get a metallic blue wash and the fliers get a
metallic red wash.
To mount the filers, I drill a little hole in the bottom with my XActo knife, and
glue in a bit of toothpick. The top (well, the bottom, but it's at the top of
the flier base) of the drywall anchor is cut off and will take the other end of the
toothpick when the flier is glued on.
Two types are not enough. So I have this
brain candy mold
to line with cooking spray.
To keep the
Crayola air dry clay
from sticking. I made two sets to guard against cracking whild drying.
It turned out that all four sides dried evenly without problem. So I will
have to find other projects for the other brain.
Once dried, glue the two halves together and use some
liquid latex
to fill in the gaps between the halves.
And a nice metallic green undercoat. For the big one, I am using an undercoat
and then grey on top instead of a basecoat with metallic wash.
And for the third size ... an intermediate one ...
squishy brain balls
And even though spiders don't have endoskeletons,
these Halloween decorations
will make good bases.
The walkers.
The fliers.
And a nice horde of brains comin' at you!
