Description I made this mask a few years ago. A recent discussion with about what can be achieved with papier-mache prompted me to post him here. I wanted him to be quite angular and slabby, like he really was carved out of stone.
He was bought by the mayor of my town, to wear at a local Masquerade ball.

You really did bring out that angular, slabby look! Not only that, but the green, mossy hues are a great detail. This is a really great gargoyle (also not too fancy or strange, but somewhat classical).

I love the texture. It looks very much like the pictures I have seen of real Gargoyles. Thanks for showing it.

It's textural paint, which contains sand, I think. It was a real find.

It just goes to show that you can never tell who your next customer is going to be. I never would have thought he'd be into Gargoyles, but he loved it.
Thank you!
