Here’s me working on the braids and final touches of the mask.

# data[].attributes.body
I then added twine hanging off the back of the mask and braided shell into it. I also added a dangly feature hanging off the horn.

# data[].attributes.body
I then added sand to the inside of the second section.

# data[].attributes.body
Here’s a better look.

# data[].attributes.body
I added obsidian pieces to the inside of the first triangle made by the nice ridge.

# data[].attributes.body
I wrapped twine around the ridges on the horns.

# data[].attributes.body
This is when i started to do the add-ons

# data[].attributes.body
I added white dots on too of the beans to add definition to the facial features and to give them dimension.

# data[].attributes.body
This is the full mask painted black

# data[].attributes.body
This is half the mask painted black

# data[].attributes.body
Once the spackle dried I added beans for dimension after I paint it black

# data[].attributes.body
This is the full mask with a thin layer of spackle

# data[].attributes.body
This is half the mask with the spackle

# data[].attributes.body
This is the paper mash all dried and ready for the spackle

# data[].attributes.body
Here’s the mask with the paper mash almost done and dried

# data[].attributes.body
I added eyes and a nose like bridge

# data[].attributes.body
This is paper mash which I used to add facial features to my mask.

# data[].attributes.body
This is the mask after the paper mache hardened.

# data[].attributes.body
This is the whole thing wheat pasted and ready to dry hard so I can add the details

# data[].attributes.body
This is half the mask with wheat paste and newspaper.

# data[].attributes.body
I then covered the balls of paper with newspaper to make it smooth for the wheat paste.

# data[].attributes.body
here’s another angle of the horns

# data[].attributes.body
this is what it looked like with the newspaper volume and tape

# data[].attributes.body
First i cut out the shape of my mask with post paper/ card stock and placed my initial mask in the middle where i added balls of news paper around it to add dimension and volume.

# data[].attributes.body
the initial mask next to my ideas for what my mask might look like (i chose the one on the left)

# data[].attributes.body
the first stages of the paper mache with the human face

# data[].attributes.body
Final views of the snake put onto the bowl.

# data[].attributes.body
Adding scales and texture back on the parts that were cracked.

# data[].attributes.body
Added the head back onto the snake and here is the final produce.

# data[].attributes.body
It broke again

# data[].attributes.body
Forgot to hollow out the head so when it was off of the snake I hollowed it out.

# data[].attributes.body
I broke right in the middle and I had to slip and score it back together.

# data[].attributes.body
when I was putting the snake onto the bowl the head fell off.

# data[].attributes.body
This is a pic of me fixing a crack in my snake.

# data[].attributes.body
final pattern of the scales on the head.

# data[].attributes.body
I added the texture to the head of the snake. Larger scales

# data[].attributes.body
I put some detail on the head such as nostrils and eyes.

# data[].attributes.body
broken snake

# data[].attributes.body
When I was making my bowl parts of my snake cracked.

# data[].attributes.body
A pic of the footer I put on the bowl.

# data[].attributes.body
Once my bowl was leather hard I added a footer for it to be even.

# data[].attributes.body
This is a pic of what the texture looks like.

# data[].attributes.body
Pic of the texture. I wasn’t too prominent so i had to deepen the scales

# data[].attributes.body
This is me adding more scales to the rest of the snake because I had to do it in sections.

# data[].attributes.body
hollowing out the tail end of the snake

# data[].attributes.body
I started to get the shape of the snake where it’s larger at the head and narrows out by the tail.

# data[].attributes.body
I scratched the cool idea and instead made a bowl that my snake would then go around and on.

# data[].attributes.body
Trying to roll a big snake because i was going to make it the body of the snake the bowl itself.

# data[].attributes.body
started on my snake by rolling it out to a snake form/ body.

# data[].attributes.body
Tried the wheel for the first time. Didn’t go too well.

# data[].attributes.body
back of the hand

# data[].attributes.body
added some minors

# data[].attributes.body
majors on the back of the hand

# data[].attributes.body
majors on palm of the hand

# data[].attributes.body
more majors

# data[].attributes.body
adding the majors onto the fingers

# data[].attributes.body
added webbing and slimmed down the fingers, but they look a far apart.

# data[].attributes.body
trying to add dimensions on my hand, but fingers are still a little chubby.

# data[].attributes.body
my thumb finger got messed up when i had to slip and score my hand back together.

# data[].attributes.body
slip and score

# data[].attributes.body
i soaked my hand in the towel and it broke in half :(

# data[].attributes.body
making the joints more prominent in the fingers

# data[].attributes.body
shaping the thumb and thumb nail

# data[].attributes.body
this was me pressing in the finger nails some more and shaping the fingers so they don’t look as fat.

# data[].attributes.body
after shaping I started to press in the fingernails.

# data[].attributes.body
shaping hand to make it more rounded and to get the proportions right

# data[].attributes.body
Shaping and shaving down the hand to make it look more realistic and much less box-like.

# data[].attributes.body
Cutting out the hand by tracing my hand first.

# data[].attributes.body
My flame candle holder didn’t make it any further. I broke because they were too wet to stand up and too thin at the ridges of the flame. Two of them ended up cracking and I knew I had to start over and come up with a better idea.

# data[].attributes.body
Almost done!

# data[].attributes.body
looks good here but as I kept stacking the flowers the more cone like the structure became.

# data[].attributes.body
Connected the flowers to each other to make them stay.

# data[].attributes.body
Slip and score some more!

# data[].attributes.body
First layer done!

# data[].attributes.body
More flowers I cut out
