Love that you didn't over-do it! Reads as wet, doesn't pull focus.

Work has been super heavy so I am behind... was hoping to be done with the tail and working on the torso.. hopefully by mid april the painting will be done and the Alien with be back up on the ceiling.

Nightmarish...in a cool way

Glossing The Tail... sequel to Gleaming The Cube coming to a theater near you soon.. this is straight Liquidtex gloss medium. I did a test and let some dry in a clear plastic cup... and then crushed the cup.... no cracks!

 

[joberg]

That tail is so cool

 

[Metalalien]

That tail is so cool

[Palantirion]

Bragging about your size again...

True, but it's limp (ROFL...foam latex).

*that's what she said* I'll try to snap a decent pic of it tomorrow.

Is anything ever really done or do you just stop working on it?

 

[Metalalien]

Assembling finished parts in the living room almost like Christmas presents! and getting to work on the next batch. This will be done and hanging up in about a week and a half I hope.

 

[joberg]

Yep, you have to stop at a certain time and be like Picasso To the question "What's your best work?" He responded: "The next one."
That's how we, artists, have to think Eager to see it all mounted and hovering above the ground

I wonder if deep sea fish inspired H.R. Giger:

Why do deep-sea fish look like aliens?

Deep-sea fish have evolved unique traits to thrive in their unforgiving habitat.

The Black Dragonfish and Orcas are closest perhaps..Morays actually have an inner jaw…Dragonfly larva can shoot jaws forward…

I'm sure he saw something like that... he always said his nightmares were inspiration.

I have my own creature shop going on at the moment... trying to get this finished..

 

[joberg]

Wow...creature shop! You're not kidding You'll have to warn people that your little friend is hanging around, literally, so they wont be frightened by the Alien
