Give them the finger!

I know william, the mighty dollar prevails over craftsmanship and historical accuracy.

In the funeral home I made whole hands, heads/faces. I could do a full facial restoration and it was not even noticed, working in wax was easy, doing these rawhide fingers are a little tedious.

Just to lighten the topic a little (hope it's OK), here's some treats I made for the kids last Halloween - coloured marzipan, almond flakes and white chocolate matchsticks (for bones). Not forgetting the cherry sauce. Mmmmm! (tasty, but not very PC!)

I'm speechless. But I can guess what some parents might have said when those were brought home. :shocked2:

now that's some hardcore historical accuracy.
ps - if you make anymore in the future, consider adding on a dark brown ring just past the last knuckle to replicate muscle tissue.

Matty, I'm going to add to each a junk antler tine, not as a "bone", but as something to spool a thong through, and wrap it in red trade cloth(wool flannel) I got from the Goodwill. Thanks for the tip. One person at pow wow back in 2009 said I needed to make a head, I think I'll stick with fingers and human hair wig scalp locks for the simple reason I can make a dozen fingers in the time it would take to make a fake human head. I made enough of those in various funeral homes. :thumbsup:
