Simply incredible work. The fact that this is a paper mache sculpture is even more incredible!
Fantastic piece!

Funny idea,but i want to leave open a little hole for different points of view.
I feel a bit sorry that this not intended "mickey mouse " aspect
seems to be such an overwhelming feature of this
piece,that my intention of doing some semi-abstract bone structure seems to go lost behind it.

wow...this is freakin' awesome....wasn't gonna check it out.....cuz i thought..."wat the fuck is soooo damn cool about a skeleton...that it would get a DD?"...but after readin' it's a paper muche piece.......well.......here i am...commentin'....on it's AWESOMENESS.........amazing job man.....

wonderful. The construction is marvelous, it's symetrical and has this bone like look to it, which is awesome. I have to agree it does resemble that of a turtle shell to a degree, but still has that spine, pelvis feel to it... and you've definitally handled the medium quite well... better than many of us could probably even dream....
Did you use any particular type of paper? Or just the classic "new print"? :-p
well done!

XD at a quick glance I thought it was real and was like "what the fuck kind of skeleton is that from?!" but then I was like oh... HEEE I feel retarded now

No reason to feel retarded.
ItΒ΄s more up to me to take this "looking like real "as a hidden compliment
- Thank You !

LOL! It was a compliment really! Obviously I don't always have the... right way of saying things. But it was amazing! Do take it as flattery!

Kind of an Alien Spine thing. With ears.
Seriously....a lovely amalgamation of boney curves, hollows and points. And very well made too.

it kinda looks like a mouse. lol... i dunno what makes me think that, but i think it looks like a mouse that's a little too round... lol
but it's gorgeous... nice work ^^

Congratulations on the DD...

I love this! They well photographed too. Original (or at least to my eyes) and it looks as if alot of work went into it. The work paid off.

That's amazing. I first thought it was real bone, until I read the description. Great detail and composition of the bones & such. It... is a made up skeleton, right? Not modeled after a real one?

Nicely done! at first I was like what animal is that from (maybe a turtel). Then I read more hehehe. Looks good!

That is SO cool. You made that out of paper mache? It's so smooth! It looks like it was made out of stone... well, actually... it looks like a real skeleton! Heh heh! Awesome job, dude.

this is unique. I can think of so many things I probably would have done with this piece if I had created it myself: a roleplaying hat (hey, all chars need a good quirk), a mask for a theater piece, or simply as the highlight to any given room. well done. Love the concept
π: 0 β©: 0
great concept. It resembles a face-hugger from ALIEN the movie... I think when i take sculpture class in spring that i will use this concept as well... hmmm what to make what to make... oh and yes, a tutorial or at least a recipe of your materials would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You !
I tried to make paper mache several times after this,
but never received again this quality.
It seems to be very sensitive to the amounts of ingredients you use.
I used for this :
- newspaper,boiled and chopped
- fine sawdust
- a cellulose fibre powder used for smoothening walls
- chalk powder (for that bone-white color )
- wallpaper glue
and water
mixed all well,put it into a plastic bag and let it mature for three months.
Maybe the quality depends also on the information content of used newspaper.
Good luck !

Yes,and donΒ΄t forget your laser sword !

And it is from this that I draw my professional conclusion that mickey mouse evolved from a turtle. I have found an interevolutionary skeleton!
Honestly, great work! That's some serious talent you have there!

Improve your interevolutionary concept and You will top Darwin !
Thank You for the fave,by the way !
