I used some Model Magic foam, recycled cardboard, glue and paint to make the infamous Green Devil Face from the Tomb of Horrors. This is the start. Just a frame of a face. Here he is in rough foam with all the added details. I built the wall section from thin cardboard, glued cross-grain for strength. I added strips to the bottom so that I'd have some surface area for the hot glue to hold the wall onto the floor. Here he is attached to the wall. I covered some cracks and splits with flexible modeling paste. Also roughed him up a bit for some texture on the foam. [Edit 12/6/2015 - images on Tumblr broke; moved to Imgur]

I ran that module at a hobby store, back around 1982... One player stated, "I wrap myself, tightly, in my +2 Cloak of Protection, and I dive in... What happens?" I took him aside, and explained to him that he had a first-hand experience with the afterlife. I felt bad, but I made a new gaming friend that day. The rest, as they say, is history.
Thanks for sharing. That is a real blast from the past. You did an excellent job capturing that image, in 3-D. It brought back some wonderful memories -- well, depending on how you look at it... Cheers!

Oh man, what a classic! Tomb of Horrors. Nearly an instant death trap, right? Yup, really digging your sculpt, wilmanric. This is AD&D. Nice.
