Description

Here is another cephalopod fake god. This time it is from Hindu culture. At the time Himalaya didn’t exist yet, India was an island, so maybe lands which are human territory now, once was territory of a clever cephalopod.

Again this squid won’t be able to support his own weight on dry land. This time the solution choose to fix this problem been to support the head of the squid with what looks like a helmet. The helmet is stuck a sort of ring that is laid on the ground. So it looks like it is siting, whereas in fact it is hanging to the helmet.

Eyes are the real eyes of the squid. Trunk is made of two smaller tentacles. Tusks are made by making the two attack tentacles show up a little. Ears are made using a fold of membrane. Arms and legs are tentacles. The belly is made using membrane and maybe a hidden round object to make volume.

The big belt doesn’t hide genitals, but an absence of genitals (as a mask could possibly hide the absence of a face). The necklace helps to form a neck. The siphon of the squid is hidden by the helmet; it also may hide a water distribution system. I like to imagine that lotus flowers grow around those gods because of this water alimentation. Also, if the siphon was seeable it could look like a third crying eye.
