Anyone even remotely interested in DIY-ing this Halloween should take a look at this video! Allen teaches the basics of dry brushing (left) and "antiquing" (right), both easy and affordable ways to really bump up the look of just about any decoration or costume texture. This can save a lot of money on props because you just need a good form but can cheap out on something with a lame paint job (if you watch some of his other videos on corpsing/form-making, you can even make your own form textures and work off a dollar tree skull or even just plastic bags and such!), especially if you already have paints lying around.
