No additional partners option for this class. Spend the weekend at the graveyard and learn to make the signature Davis Graveyard monk. You will start with a wooden frame and learn to build the body shape and get your hands (and the rest of you) dirty learning how to use monster mud. You will get messy in this class bring shoes and clothing that you do not care about, monster mud will stain your clothing. This prop requires two people because burlap soaked in monster mud is heavy and cumbersome to work with! Your finished monk will be over 6 feet tall, so you will need a vehicle to get it home. |
