Tuppets Halloween 2015

[tuppetsdad]

OK so after much badgering from the other Tuppets we had a Halloween show....

The day started well when we looked out the front of our house and a nice big Cherry picker was being unloaded.




Unfortunately it turned out to be for next door


We had done some prep work with main new addition our walk in front yard cemetery with half a dozen plots and a mausoleum.


A couple of pics during the day...


One of our Zombies decided to make an appearance (we were popular with the un-dead it seems)



Fred and his dog were getting ready for a big day



Our witches Helga and Olga were having a brew and a chat



and Henry was hanging around.



We were just about ready and then they arrived.... more pics and video later

I bought on of those skeleton dogs. Of course I hacked it and made a quick kennel from an old pallet.

He runs from 5V now and has an external speaker and trigger via an IR proximity switch.

and he's cute.... 8)

Was the zombie bought as a complete torso, or just the head and hands with something scratch-built for the body?

Also, did you source the skeletons locally or from overseas ?

 

[tuppetsdad]

Torso and arms mostly . Skeleton from Lombards - the paper people

David, Where did you get the dig from - also Lombard's ?

 

[David_AVD]

The dog was from an eBay seller. Just search for skeleton dog.

I don't think he is cute ... but he would be useful all year round ... nice
