Wyvern's Halloween Crypts (Dave Graffam Models)

[Wyvern]

My latest builds: a pair of crypts, gifts for my nephews for Halloween decorating.

I used Dave Graffam's Crypt kit, available on Ecardmodels.com here. This is one of Dave's multi-layered kits, giving the builder many options for the final model, including wall and roof textures, ornamentation, and detailing. I printed them out at full scale (30mm).

The crypt with the gothic peaked roof used the following layers: grey brick, engravings 1, paired tulip lanterns, cracks, and the peaked roof and gothic spires, and hexagonal columns. The second crypt uses red brick, stone borders on the roof and base, engravings 2 (a different pattern of memorial plaques) lichen, square columns and roof ornaments, a flat roof, cut stone base, urns with niches, and single "coach-house"-style lanterns.

The models built in about an hour each, and had their own box-type bases. As designed, they are very sturdy.

Thanks for looking!

Looks good, in a bad sort of way! They should definitely lend a creepy atmosphere to whatever your nephew does for Halloween.

Those look good and creepy. I purchased this kit and it's been sitting on my computer for a while. Guess I need to get busy and build it.

Nice builds!!! The texture work is very good, at first I though the lights where separate pieces.
