Quetzalcoatl inspired mempo mask, finally done and ready for molding!

Available soon in my ETSY shop!

Piranha mask.

I wanted to further explore more organic textures techniques that gave the impression of real bone. I also opted for a naturally occurring skull instead of making one up. I had seen many animal skull masks but no fish skulls...this one seemed a natural choice.

New mask in the works!

This is a half-mask inspired by the Aztec feathered serpent Quetzalcoatl.

Chibi Predator digital model kit by the amazing Willy Kao. Painted by me using enamel paints. 

I had a lot of fun painting this. The details and quality of this figure are truly amazing! It is solid resin giving it a nice, solid little heft. I used tamiya translucent red mixed with smoke to get the blood on the skull and blades. I am very happy with how it turned out. It even has a natural gloss to it, making it look like a nice wet, freshly skinned look.

Figure is available through Kao’s Etsy shop: Digitalmodelkit
