Okay, this is coming from a guy who has hardly any "ingredients" to make it (and this would be my second, next to those crappy flags on cocktail stick  ) Anyway: 1: What should the surface be made out of? I was thinking along the lines of a tissue box. 2: Which kind of paints for the surface? Would any work? 3: What should the tombstone be made of? Could it be a slotted card saying RIP or would that not be good? 4: What should the "dirt" be made of? I'm thinking of doing millions of scrunched up pieces of brown paper. 5: A small object? Maybe to top the finish of the match off. Any suggestions? I will try to get the pictures on the custom accessories thread but no promises. Thanks if I get replies and treat my like I'm new to customs (which I am lol)  |

1. shoe box
2. Spray paint maybe ?
3. Maybe sculpt it with Sculpy
4. Those little stryofoam balls painted brown could work.
5. Maybe put a small but sturdy piece of paper there and cover the top of it with brown cottonballs, then when somebody gets thrown on it, they fall in.

1. A decent sized shoe box would work well.
2. A bottle of spray paint would work well. You don't want to be using regular acrylic paint from the tubes. That would take a long time.
3. There's a tombstone Jakks made that came with an Undertaker figure that you could use.
4. Use the fake dirt that you can get at a gardening store. It's kind of like dried up brown paper chunks.
5. Maybe get a wheel barrel and shovel to stick in the fake dirt to make the buried alive set look that much more realistic. Also you paper machet or clay to sculpt or build a hill leading up to the grave.

A fed x shipping box
spray paint, or any panit except for the ones that fade when its dried.
A tombstone jakks made, or get creative and make one out of cardboard and printouts.
for dirt, i was thinking you no that moonsand stuff if it doesn't stain figures it would work perfectly, and jakks shovels and jakks casket, to finish it.

1: What should the surface be made out of? I was thinking along the lines of a tissue box.
I would use a shoe box or make it out of wood
2: Which kind of paints for the surface? Would any work?
Spray paint would be you best bet
3: What should the tombstone be made of? Could it be a slotted card saying RIP or would that not be good?
If you have a RA 11 Undertaker it came with a tombstone that would work
4: What should the "dirt" be made of? I'm thinking of doing millions of scrunched up pieces of brown paper.
That could work for now
5: A small object? Maybe to top the finish of the match off. Any suggestions?
no clue

Thanks again, I did it yesterday, looks okay but probably too crap to show, just a shoebox, cut-out hole to scale Yokozuna's body, nd an ass-shaped tombstone. A cloth also. Its crap but we're gonna paint it soon. Question: Would it be okay to use paint on a shiny-like cardboard shoebox?

Its crap but we're gonna paint it soon. Question: Would it be okay to use paint on a shiny-like cardboard shoebox? I just used some acrylic paint lying around. You might want to do 2-3 layers because it comes off farely easily. |
