Boo! Did we get ya? Just a plain old Boo won't get you too many scares these days... but a spooky tombstone on your front lawn or a scary door plaque just might set the right mood for some ghoulishly wicked-fun Halloween trick or treating!
Halloween happens but once a year so we wanted to add a bit more versatility to cover any costume, masquerade or murder mystery event. Not only will you find a skull, bony hand and a tombstone you'll also get a masquerade mask, top hat and marquee sign. We just sent your mind spinning... right?
We have designed a few neat features into this mini-project that will make it even easier to use and re-use. These features include:
- Tombstone and sign have some great open space so you can v-carve some spooky text or add just about any scary model.
- The brim of the top hat has been modeled to fit over most average height models.
Wondering how we made the cracks on the tombstone? Using a free set of crack vectors we created specially for this mini-project. Hey... we think of everything. You might consider using them to model in or simply use them to v-carve the cracks.
Toss out those big box store decorations and make yourself something that will keep spooking the kiddies for years, and years, and years.... Boo!
Get yourself noticed... you know you deserve it!
Post your finished project in the Vectric User Forum under Vector Art 3D / Design and Make It - Gallery or Email us an image of a project you made that uses one of our projects and a short description (try to include software used, the CNC ,finishing process and a social link... don't forget your name).
When it gets posted we will be sure to let you know!!!!

Hack this project!
The "Forgetful Sam" tombstone above is made using the models from 3 projects:
- Tombstone - Halloween No.2
- Cabin Plaque - Shipyard No.1
- Vulture - Western Saloon No.2
The font used to simulate the v-carving is called JasmineUPC.
The cracks in the tombstone are simulated v-carving using the these free vectors: DXF - Outlines for cracks
WOW... that's a hack!
The Halloween No.2 project contains the following models and project sheet.
To get you started on your next weekend project we have included this assembled layout.
Food for thought.
