My Necronomicon

I'd like to thank onespartan for his ible on making the Necronomicon: Book Of the Dead I was looking for halloween Ideas and it totally caught my attention. This will not be a step by step instruction as he already did a top notch job. I'm just going to go over what I did differently.

Materials I used.
Brown Paper bag
Old Book to use as base (in this case a 4th edition AD&D Monsters Compendium that was falling apart)
Scissors
Sharp knife
DUCT TAPE
Old Phone book
Elmers white glue
Mod Podge
Brushes large small and a sponge brush.
Paper towles
Paint I used Brown Hi gloss acrylic latex enamel and midnight blue latex eggshell stamp paint. (all I had)
Water
Blender
mixing bowls
My drivers license

Cost:
$2.99 for a small bottle of Mod Podge. If I was to do it again I would get a much bigger one. as I substituted watered down elmers for the paper pulp.

Step 1 Step 1

I had a really beaten up 4th edition AD&D Monsters Manual that needed some work. The front and back covers were almost detached from the spine. So I used some duct tape to reattach them, both inside and out. I thought the Monster manual would be a really great body to form the Necronomicon onto.

Probably will not make another one. I think this one turned out pretty fine for what it is. I'd actually have to go out and by stuff to get a film accurate version.

I have made the book of the dead from the evil dead i used blue tack to make the face and reinforced tape to make the book i made evey single page from the evil dead book of the dead hand drawn, I think the best evil dead book is from the evil dead evil dead 2 book its not that good to compair withl the evil dead i dont like the book from evil dead 3. Raolin try to make the book of dead from the evil dead it`s easy to make, Raoiln thats your first book make more of them then you will get better at making them like i have sorry i cant show you my book of the dead because my cam is broken if my cam was not broken i would of shown you my book of the dead pic and you will like it trust me it looks like from the evil dead.
