RabidAlien Posted March 29, 2020 Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 (edited) (severed heads not included) Someone bought the skull I'd made and displayed at work last November, so I figured I should probably get started on a replacement....before October rolled around. I couldn't decide on any one pattern, so I settled on six. Most were really quick cuts, none were incredibly difficult (Ash's chainsaw blade will teach one how to cut corners, if nothing else!), and I blew through all six this weekend. They're currently stained, and I've got frames notched and ready to cut to size. They're all 3/16" ply, scraps from other projects, no idea if they're BB or just a generic Lowes ply. Whatever they are.....its always good to take a step back from the long, intricate, detailed projects and blast through a couple of quick one-day projects. Gets me back to where I love cutting again, anyway. 1. Edgar Allen Poe (with raven) 2. BoogeyMan (from "Nightmare Before Christmas") 3. really cool grin I found on Google Images 4. Ash, with chainsaw-hand, from "Evil Dead" movies 5. Alfred Hitchcock 6. H.P. Lovecraft, 1920s-1940s horror author, and the guy who came up with the "Cthulu" series of "elder monsters". An inspiration for Stephen King and other modern horror authors.

heppnerguy Posted April 4, 2020 Report Share Posted April 4, 2020 great pieces. I am glad you showed the finished ones as the first photos did not have enough contrast in the background to be able to understand how really good they are.
