Each one is radically different than the next.

Holy heck! Is the head completely hollow? That is great!

Willow Cove said...

Alright! It looks great!

Shani said...

That is just crazy cool! The hubby agrees.....awesomeness at it's finest. Can I ask what he's made out of? You are seriously talented Sir...we can't wait for more pictures!

Sara said...

Oooh, dang! Gone done an' givin' me chills.



.........."Miiiister JONES and meee...." Lol.

Mark Faucett said...

Amazing! That thing would startle me in broad daylight!

Rot said...

Thanks, all!

Two sticks hold up his weird face...like a stretched empty hollow mask...except the mask has teeth.

Clumps of paper wrapped with duct tape...and then coated with paper towels dipped into glue mache - two parts water...one part elmers glue.


Shani said...

That's awesome! I love that something that looks so complex and amazing is made out of such simple tools.

gorgeous--can't wait to see the finished set-up!

Autumnleaf said...

Wow. There's something fetal about it (the size of the eyes?) which makes it even creepier. It looks like it's attached and growing out of a tree!

Marrow said...

I wasn't prepared for this when I opened your blog. I think my heart skipped a beat.

Rot said...

: )
Thanks, Marrow!

Ragged Grin said...

l love how full of expression and character it is despite its apparent emptiness. Killer looking prop, as we've come to expect. Awesome!

Rot said...

Thanks!

girl6 said...

awwwwwww!
he looks sad, like he's been crying.
maybe, his heart was stolen & he's just sooo Hollow (or empty) inside now...that face, just makes you wanna just wrap your arms around him.

he's a Beauty.. :)

ShellHawk said...

It looks like you caught it in motion! The empty eyes really add to the creepy effect!

Rot said...

Thanks, guys.

Love that description, girl6

Vintage Seance said...

Fantastic! I love it! Spooky and well done :)

Heather said...

Squeeeee!!!LOVE!! Can't wait! My fav part of Halloween is to see what the great Pumpkinrot has done!! :D

Ragged Grin said...

Looking at it on a big screen I totally get the sadness aspect like Girl6 said, I truly do, almost feel sorry for it, like a wounded animal in a trap that has accepted its fate.

Amazing, beautiful in fact.

Rot said...

Thanks, man.
Dig that.
