Gargoyle Make Over

So I have lots of crafts to complete for this Halloween this year.  One projects I have intended to do for years is repaint these gargoyles.  I hate the factory finish on this pair - it is so pathetic.  So I finally sat down and gave them a coat of black paint, followed by dry brush with gray, white and off white.  A little antiquing wax and they are ready for display in the haunted parlor.

    Wow, what a difference! There's actually some pretty nice stuff out there in the Hallowe'en section, if you can manage to look past the crappy finish most of them sport. Nicely done, lady M! :D

      I agree - a new paint job does wonders for a crappy prop!
