Painted cheap plastic pumpkins to look like stone

I purchased inexpensive plastic pumpkins from both Michaels and Walmart (Total cost $11.00) The decorative pot I had, but painted it black and added some grass and then spray painted that black as well. I used tinted Drylock for the base coat (that is a paintable cement, water sealer/blocker, it comes white, but I had the man at Home Depot tint it for me. I also used acrylic paint to add definition (white, grey and black) Hope you enjoy.
