WW2 Disney Military Insignia

A few years ago I came across these really cool WW2 military insignias designed by Disney. They designed hundreds of these cool insignias headed by disney artist Hank Porter.  This particular insignia was designed for the Brazilian Expeditionary Force aka The Smoking Snake. I really wanted to do something with these insignias, so I made this to display at home.

Witch's Poisoned Apple and Poison Spell Book Props

For this year's Halloween my wife and I wanted to decorate our house like the Evil Queen's lair from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. After doing some research, we wanted to make our own props from the movie. First I made the Witch's Poisoned apple using an artificial apple and some sculpey.

 I really wanted to get that dripping effect.

 Then we made the Evil Queen's poison book with the apple spell. The book was from a used bookstore and the page I designed in photoshop referencing the book from the movie. Then to give it the weathered and aged look, we dipped it in coffee and tore it a bit. We bought potion bottles  at a craft store and filled them with green and red dish soap.

Next year we hope to add a few more elements to this display
