If you botch carving them in, just bondo over them, and redo!
Paint our finally with several layer of black krylon spray paint.
Then customise with Folk Wear paints, black, greys, and rusty colors.
Also, cover with a dirty glaze, polish the high point. And make sure you dull the whole piece with a scotch pad.
Add drapes, and enjoy!
And no, there ar eno eye holes. ;)

What is dirty glaze? Is there a specific name it has, or is there a brand that stocks it? It would be super helpful for a project I'm working on!

Hi! Sorry about the delay. The 'dirty' glaze we use is a custom mix Finishers Glaze. We go to Sherwin Williams paint stores and get their Van Dyke wood filler glaze, and we have it adjusted to our furniture needs.
More terra cotta type dirt colours added. It looks like a dark brown mudd. But Van Dyke is a very general colour that should work on it's own. I add that, and then even come back with more, sometimes a lighter brown or even a black to make a layered look. Hope this helps!

This is such a helpful tutorial all round. I'm trying to construct the Witch King's helmet but I was having trouble figuring out just where to start with painting it, but this will help hugely ^^ thanks so much!
