Another Halloween house

Post by DinkyHouses »

Image
Created this for one of my employee's Halloween birthdays. The lighting is quite poor, however it is sporting quite a bit of glitter.
Used the crackle effect on the porch (paint over wet glue).
Found some templates online for tombstones - so carved them out of a thicker foam core, engraved, painted and then glazed for the vintage effect and to allow the engraving to show up a bit more.
Used two shades of Copic markers on velum for the colored effect in the windows.
The back of the house sports a working door for inserting battery operated tea lights.
Measurements are 8W, 7D, 11H
