Holy OEJ, That's awesome, looks just like your avitar! Oh my your gonna be awesome at this hobby I can see that! Nice job!

Thanks, DOD! But that's just a first try. The head has got to be just right right. Just wait til the whole thing is finished.
I've already got my idea for my next piece.... It's going to be myself (OEJ) and 'Death' (in a tuxedo, heh heh) shaking hands with smiles on both of our faces and both of us have our fingers crossed behind our backs........................ LORD I just wish i had as much time as I wanted!!!!!!!!!

OK OK! So I can't keep anything a secret! I've decided to share with you all, a step by step as I go along with this first project. I showed you my first attempt at the head... bah!

I might make the head the LAST thing I add. I REALLY DO NOT know what I'm doing so, your guess as to the final outcome of this thing is as good as mine. I kind of know what I'm going for so, really, that's my only lead. I'm kind of letting the darn thing create itself, if you know what I mean.

Here's a pic of my first step....


I molded heavyduty aluminum foil into a ground shape then covered it with basic white 'Original Sculpey'. I then covered that with a thin layer of a 'malifiore' type mixture of brown and green that I made with my new pasta making machine, I bought today.

I then took a simple carving tool and nitched it all up to make the grass and planted my grave stone. Just off to the side, as all creepy grave stones should be!

THIS is from where OEJ shall rise!

Stay tuned for the NEXT............. chilling....... tale!

That's awesome OEJ! You're a natural at this craft Looks super, can't wait to see step #2

OMG!!!! YOU WILL BE A FAMOUS HALLOWEEN ARTIST ONE DAY!!!

**Hooch sniffs back her tears of joy and pride**
And we'll be able to say we knew you when...

I've said it before, and I'll say it again, OEJ, YOU ROCK!!!

Looks wonderful. You Rock!

Hi Friends!!!!!!!
I really wish I had time to post more, but I've been working such long hours and whe I come home I find I just wanna forget everything and do my little sculpey thing......... here's stage two......


Hugs!

OMG OEJ! That's so awesome! Holy you rock at this I can't wait to see it finished. So once you're famous will you forget about us? You go Jack!!

So proud of you

OEJ, you 'ol salty DOGGGG!!!!

Damn, boy, that is GGGOOOOODDDD!!!!

Can I have your autograph so I can sell it on ebay later when you get famous?

Simply exquisite OEJ!!! I too would like your autograph...preferably etched on the underside of one of your delightful sculptures...hint hint

Hey how about OEJ goes Pro! Forget Lemax, and Dep #56, and there could be a new line: OEJ'S Spooky Village Creations!

Ok OEJ, If you get to the point where you are going to sell these, how about all of us on here get first crack at buying your first pieces?

looking mighty fine so far OEJ

I totally agree DOD! Think of the first sculpture - "One Eyed Jack Rising from his Grave" - as a symbol of our friend's rise to fame and fortune. Wow!

Wow, people!!! Thanks for all your encouragement! And I promise that when I do start getting to the "selling" point, I'll give everyone here first crack at anything.

My Mrs. says you all are going to make my head swell up like.... well, like a PUMPKIN..............DUUUUUUUUUUUH!!!!

Hehehe... Thanks again....... and staaaaay tuuuuuuned

This is totally awesome!! You rock!! Can't wait to see the finished product. Way to go.

Wow, that is very impressive......I think you should auction off your first piece on Halloween.com.. Seeing how everyone is already wanting it. Then how ever much it goes for could be your selling price for your other pieces... Just a thought....

Great Job!!! Keep up the awesome work!
