Hi sorry i missed your question earlier but here goes, If you are going to keep it outside i would recommend using a polymerclay, fimo or sculpy as air dry clay would dissolve in the elements (if its for indoor use that it would be fine)the top is removable from the jar but its a sealed battery which you could remove and change but would probably need soldered back in place. For the time and effort i would be more inclined just to buy another lid and paint it up as it only cost £1

Hi,It's just random but that's how you end up summoning some sort of ancient evil isn't it? Actually I looked at Darksiders script/symbols for insperation

Hey!First off my apologies for not replying sooner (was on a bit of a online hiatus)My general approach to this is just to either make a rough sketch first (just using the basic shapes of the feet, arms, body) or just to have a play about with the position as I am making it (I do it this way most of the time). Sometimes you can have a plan but you just happen to like the way a bit of it is sitting after you sculpt it :)

Yes, If you are painting it you will want to give it a coat of varnish or the paint will fade. The paint will fade eventually as with most things left outside but the polymer clay has no issues being exposed to the elements (at least the brand FIMO doesn't):)

Thank you. I think you may surprise yourself and should give it a try (not just this one other similar crafts) I work for a community arts charity were one of our outreach projects is specifically for adults who have never really done arts and crafts before and the majority of participants realise they are far more creative than they gave themselves credit for :)Give it a dry, what's the worst that can happen? (and if you can create an indoor rope making set up I recon you can do about anything ;) )

View Instructable »Thank you and you are absolutely right about Hallowe'en. I added a tip about using glow in the dark polymer clay for the eyes that would be a great addition to a Hallowe'en version :)

- Barry Neeson commented on Barry Neeson's instructable Rock Troll/stone Faces
Yup, I also just remembered that they do glow in the dark stuff. I could have made these guys with glow in the dark eyes....next time.
and your comment made me smile so thank you too :)
Just remebered that Fimo does glow in the dark clay, so you could make your with glow in the dark eyes :)

Hi and thank you,I would normally agree with you about GITD paint etc and the larger ghost could have done with another coat or 2 of the stuff but i couldnt because i had remade the smaller ghosts and went to town on them with the paint, if you look in the comments there are some updated but un altered photos of how they looked (https://www.instructables.com/Glow-in-the-Dark-Clo...I am also hoping to give culture hustles LIT powder a try at some point as its looking pretty impressive (https://culturehustle.com/collections/powders/products/lit-the-worlds-glowiest-glow-pigment-100-pure-lit-powder-by-stuart-semple). If you look at their instagram (https://www.instagram.com/culturehustle/) you can see it in action.
