Non-Pony Weeping Angel

We're having a late Halloween party this Saturday at my house, with a Doctor Who theme.   

As part of the decorations, I have built a weeping angel statue.  I'm still amazed that I made this thing.  Lookie!

She was actually surprisingly simple and cheap to put together!  I own a dress form, so I wrapped it in trash bags, set it on top of a stool, duct taped a foam head ($4 from sally's beauty supply) on top, and stuck the cardboard wings into the back (through the adjustable opening in the dress form).  I pinned yarn to her head along with a headband, and the arms are duct tape; I wrapped my arms in saran wrap and had my husband cover them with duct tape, after which I cut them off, taped them back up, and stuffed them with polyfil.  the hands are gloves stuffed with polyfil, and the dress is just some random dark fabric I had laying around, pinned into shape. 

And lots and lots and lots of gray and 'stone' spray paint.
