Paper Mache Fish

Hello there! Sorry I haven't been updating for awhile; rest assured, I've been busy. Here's something quick until the next post; I had to design a fish for my marine biology course; the assignment was basically a nice easy grade for the end of the semester. So here's mine, a huge-mouthed monstrosity with a city in its mouth. The story was that a certain breed of sea monkeys take residence in its mouth, hollowing out its teeth into the plastic aquarium props/buildings they're so used to seeing. I was hoping to make it really cool and intricate...but then I waited until the last day to start, and it ended up pretty kindergarten-projecty. Ahh well.

Plaster and Paper Mache Dragon Mask

So even though this is large, completely pointless, and takes up space, it's probably one of my favorite things I've ever made. It's a dragon mask made of a motorcycle helmet, paper mache, and those plaster bandages. The teeth are made of clay, and they glow in the dark, as well as the eyes. The model is my beautiful roommate, Lauren (thanks buddy!)
