    Coral Stand for Aquaman

    Hey guys,
    i decided to make a display for Aquaman.
    I went to walmart and bought a $1 wooden base, that i glued a dowel rod to. After i had the dowel rod secured, i cut up a 12x2" block of styrofoam. Talk about a freakin mess. I used an exacto knife, scissors, and a dremel to cut out random coral shapes. Once I had them to the desired look i liked, i hot glued them down, primed the entire stand, painted them different colors, and applied some moss. I have a Seahorse from Boss (thanks man!) coming in the mail. Once i get it, I'm going to fashion it onto the dowel rod, make a saddle for Aquaman to sit on, and maybe a repaint of the horse entirely.

    Until the horse gets here, this is what i have:







    thanks for looking and Happy Holidays

                    Thanks everyone, this was super easy to make and alotta fun too!
                    On Monday I went out to our local pet store and got some small aquarium plants and placed them randomly on my display.

                    Once I get that Seahorse, ill either buy a saddle (Thanks PNGwynne), or ill make one. Most likely ill do a reprint of the seahorse all together. We'll see soon

                      Great Idea! It looks like a Sideshow diorama but Mego style!
