So I needed a mimic, 'cause...I don't have one 
Made this little guy completely out of the poly-clay. He really didn't turn out the way I wanted, but, what can you do.
The throne riser, or whatever you call it, is all Styrofoam and skewers and glue and paint. Got the columns shape by cutting a bunch of holes out of a sheet of Styrofoam with a hole saw. Then stacked and glued, weathered and painted. The skull is removable, so the riser can be multi-use

As soon as I saw that throne riser, and the hanging skull, some Iron Maiden started playing in my head!

HAS BEEN ACHIEVED. that has got to be one of the "mostest coolest" comments I have received, not just cause I was front man for a metal band, but also a big Maiden fan myself

Hiya Kev! thx for your interest and kind words Made the pillars out of foam insulation board, the pink ones, then using a hole saw, and a drill, cut out a bunch of small circles, then stacked them on bamboo skewers, used a hot wire cutter to fashion the grooves, then painted, actually the same that I outlined, with pictures, for the august craft war, passage to the lowerdark, hope that helps 
here's the pictures of the finished building, here

Howdy,
I just finished reading the color of magic by pratchet? The "luggage" has some very mimic like traits...
