This is a fun project to build a very realistic and unique gothic monument gravestone from nothing but styrofoam! Using (At least in my case) a bunch of left over materials to create this headstone, it also is accessible to many! This will be at home in any Halloween haunt, stage setting or even year round decor. Building an entire graveyard scene with a bunch of these would be epic! If you have any questions feel free to ask in the comments!

This is brutal. Thanx for the video!

@SamhainPropworks Год назад

I'm going to hope that brutal is a compliment :) Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for watching :)

@calebjpryor 2 года назад

I couldn't have enjoyed the build more. Your bubbly banter let's me enjoy this as much as much as I think you did.

@SamhainPropworks 2 года назад

So happy you enjoyed my banter, it really is just a raw stream of my thought processes when building these things. The creative outlet these videos give me really is my happy place, thanks so much for taking the time to watch! 😀

Great video! Don’t drop off man; keep making videos. We’ll keep watching. Thank you!

@SamhainPropworks Год назад

Thanks Charles! I have no plans on going anywhere, I love this stuff. Summer has been busy with Reno's so my free time has been somewhat absorbed! Though I actually just came in from outside finishing recording this weeks video! Glad you enjoy the content, and thanks for watching!

You had me at it's all about the base.

@SamhainPropworks 2 года назад

I laughed at myself when editing this video at the exact spot! 😀 Thanks for watching Let It Grow!

That's a great idea to use up left overs especially now that foam is so outrageously expensive. I kept think you would paint the vines/roots because I thought they were not suppose to be carved from stone but I like it all the same.

@SamhainPropworks Год назад

I really liked the idea of the vines being part of the tombstone carving, it gave it an ornate look that looks like something from many generations ago. If I finish something in grout I usually don’t paint it as it ends up weathering and flaking. But if you store it away I’m sure it would last for years. This stone in particular spent all winter outside beside my front door, other than being clipped with a snow shovel once it looks as good as the day it was made! Everything has become so expensive and I’m finding less is being thrown away to boot! Makes it hard to build things with a budget in mind! Thanks for watching finding magic!

Gorgeous!

@SamhainPropworks 2 года назад

Thanks Suzy! It is a fun and rewarding build 😀

@jp040759 2 года назад

Damn nice. Looks great.

@SamhainPropworks 2 года назад

That acrylic grout is amazing stuff, just have to make sure you don’t get too detailed with your foam work 😀

@julio-pierrefuertes2226 Год назад

Are you placing nails on the foam?

@SamhainPropworks 11 месяцев назад

Hey Julio, Im not quite sure what your question is :)

@FraidyZone 2 года назад

That's a great way to use up leftover styrofoam, and the final result looks just as amazing! Somehow, The Egyptian Goddess Isis even transformed into a skull!!😂 Do you have Dollar Tree in Canada, or is your dollar store called something else?

@SamhainPropworks 2 года назад

That transformation is part of the grand mystery! The secret of the change is hidden in the video. We have dollar tree in Canada and a dollarama too, but I really think they should rename them “The loonie bin” but I don’t think it will stick 😂

@Bluebelle51 2 года назад

have you tried using monster mud? I'm dying to play in it personally, and I'm hoping to get my chance this year.

@SamhainPropworks 2 года назад

I have seen some tutorials using the stuff! Looks amazing, I am slowly working my way into new mediums all the time and that one is completely on my radar! 😀

@MONSTERMISFITS 2 года назад

That turned out sweet

@SamhainPropworks 2 года назад

Thanks MM! I think I'm getting to the point where I think I have covered all the bases of making a halloween Graveyard, now to rinse and repeat about 20 more times! lol. Thanks for watching as always man!
