loginThe theme was "creatures of the darkness". My immediate thoughts went to the deep ocean, where some of the coolest and most alien animals live. I wanted to try and create the look of loose, translucent skin so I decided on papier-mâché. The spines and teeth are just toothpicks
Because it's mainly aluminum foil and tissue paper, it's very light!
My original plans were to give it "bioluminescent" patches, like under the eyes and on the fins but my paint was dried out. In the end I just gave it a GitD wash with the reconstituted paint.
This is the first custom I've made in a long time and doing something different was fun
