Mini Chest

I painted the box in black gesso and way playing around with some resin pieces.

I decided on pipework for the bottom part.

I stuck everything down with heavy body gel.

Added some of the small sand balls to create some texture.

I painted the whole of the outside with paynes grey.

I then decided that I wanted it to be lighter, so I stippled on medium grey acrylic paint.

I added lots and lots of different coloured acrylics and waxes until I was happy with what I had.

This is the front with the clasp of the chest.

One of the sides.

The back, I really like how the back came out.

The other side.

The top and front.

Close up of one of the sides.

Close up of the back.

And the opposite side at the back.

Centre piece - rams skull.

View from the top.

And I've just left the inside plain black.

Steampunk / Gothic Chest / Coffin / Tomb

Painted a mini chest with black gesso, added some stenciling with black modeling paste. Add a section of a decoupage queens and kings 12 x 12 paper and some steampunk pieces.

This is the top of the lid.

I put a skull face on each of the smaller sides.

Stenciling on the back.

I put some of the papers inside and then a skeleton for good measure.

Added a couple of spiders and a chain as the lid was too heavy.

Next I added some fibre paste to the edges and corners.

Then it was just a case of colouring it up to how I wanted it to look.

It opens and closes perfectly.

It's available to buy in my online shop.
