Description
Wow, started this one (what feels like) forever ago. It stumped me for awhile, but lo and behold, I come back and inspiration starts to tango with me. Fickle lady that she is, she ditched me right after I finished. (stares wistfully at the dancefloor)This one was lots of fun, and is inspired by the one and only Cthulhu but turned into a more squid-like creature by the end.
Thanks for looking, as always! <3 <3 <3
Mask is made of 8 oz leather, and is both hand shaped and painted.

I'm not the first to point it out, but it bears repeating: those barnacles look marvelous! It seems with each mask I see you do, you find more ways to top yourself. Please keep up the good work!

Ho-lee-crap. DEM BARNACLES. That is a fantastic effect, especially for an experiment!

Lol, the barnacles make the mask for me. It wasn't tough to get a squid-like shape (cutting was a pain, I will say in hindsight), but it just WASN'T. ENOUGH. You can't be a malevolent sea-god without barnacles, you know? I mean they're just part of the deal! XD

Kind of you to say! It was an odd mix of clay and glue. I started out not exactly sure how I wanted it to look when finished, so it was kind of touch-and-go for awhile as I figured it out.
