Hand of Glory Prop: Take 2

The Hand of Glory prop has a bit more age to it now. I weathered the lashing (dark brown paint wash) and gave the candles a layer of grime (yellow ocher tinted Mod Podge). Those elements looked too new in the first version. Small changes that really did make the prop better looking (I think at least).

    Superb... if you like that sort of thing. And I do. Great photos too (and that is no easy task)!
