Tonight I was too tired to do homework from the office, and instead of watching Chef Ramsay's "Kitchen Nightmares" series on YouTube, I decided to pull out my remaining partial bag of Little John clay (and a bit of P570 white which I mixed in), and make another dragon mask.
I usually spend a lot of time, making precision details, but tonight I challenged myself to use rough strokes, and create an imperfect mask fairly quickly. I think I succeeded. My main texturing tool was my thumb and thumbnails. What do you think?
I tried to make him a bit different than my first two masks (and see the first finished dragon mask here). Of course, there are similarities in the eyes, and eyebrows. But I think I managed to make a different dragon. I would have liked to add a few jagged teeth, but I wasn't sure I wanted to start fiddling with that. Maybe my fourth dragon should have some wicked looking teeth.
I will need to let it dry a bit, and then carve away some of the weight, as I think I was pretty heavy on applying the clay. But otherwise not bad for one night's work. :-)
