| Firstly, choose your favourite animal. I prefer the seahorse as it is neither too big nor too small. It also has pre-defined lines for the skeletal structure to follow. |
 |
| Melt the glue holding the brush together with warm/hot water. Do not discard this water as you can use it to wash your brush later. |
 |
| SEAHORSE! (well, not really, but close enough) |
 |
| First, paint the entire seahorse black. You may need to give it more than 1 coat of paint to get the colour evenly spread. I tried with 1 coat initially, there were patches all over. Really ugly. |
 |
| Here's what it looks like when its done. Once you go black, you never go back :p |
 |
| Use double coat of pain for the skeleton as well. It makes the contrast much more obvious and much more spooky. |
 |
| Fill in the pre made grooves with white paint. The whiter the better. If you have special fluorescent (glow in the dark) paint, that would work even better still. |
 |
| All done. A skeletal seahorse to scare the children. Hang it up on a wall and let it flap in the wind for extra effect. >:D |
 | |
| And here you will find the Jack O Lantern eating skeletal seahorses in its natural habitat. Happy Halloween everyone! |
