I'm a fairly new convert to HP and only recently found this forum. :wave:
As this is my first post, please let me know dear moderators if this is appropriate.
After seeing the third movie I looked online to find the spine shaped candles, but to no avail, and so decided to make them myself.
Tell me what you think.

Nice job!!
How'd you make these -use a chiropractor/physicians' spine model (gotta love anatomical.com) , create a clay cast from it, then pour in the wax?

Yes Grymm,
I did use a model spine in the beginning. If you're interested, here's how I made it: My flickr stream (http://www.flickr.com/photos/56296954@N07/)

Thank you :love:
Great job!
I'm displaying at Collectormania in Milton Keynes (UK) next weekend. We'll see if people want to buy them ;)

Wow, I really like that. Looks pretty cool! You going to put the numbers up the spine, perhaps?

I haven't tried yet, but I guess this would be an interesting feature to add authenticity.
