I do enjoy making scenery pieces for the table top, so I decided to do some simple sarcophagi. Can't have too many of those. Nothing fancy, just some nice scenery pieces I can throw on the table top. I did get fancy with the one in the middle and had a skeletal hand grasping the edge, begging the question of "what's inside?!"
They are all basically made the same way. Two 1 inch cubes glued together with a 2.25" x 1.5"
"sign" precut wooden part from a craft store for a lid. I then added some thin craft foam pieces to some of the tops, some of the sides, and for the blue one I used the same small round thin precut pieces I use for shields to the front for decoration. The red one has a small split bead on the top as well, and the skeletal hand is just made out of time spacers. The skull on the dark brown one is just a split bead for the skull with a smaller split bead for the open mouth. I glued it so that the split side is facing up to create the "mouth."
Very quick, very easy, and definitely something I would be happy to put on my game table.
Your stuff always a delightful sense of whimsy about it. I do hope these see use on the tabletop, they're too good not to.
