I've always wanted one of these creepy little guys, so after having my fill of making cutesyass elves, I decided to make Helmut. He'll be short (about 4') and will have traditional elf clothes except they'll be torn and dirty. He'll also have really large elf ears, hands, and feet.
I'm making him the same way as my other monsters using a styro wig head, Celluclay, and Das/Paper Clay. The eyes are hand painted over an iris print and the teeth were cast in dental acrylic.
Uh-oh I see another thread thats going to be be like Morbidas! He look amazing already. I am so excited about your new project and of course will watch for updates just like during the creation of Morbida!
The names you come up with are just as entertaining as the projects themselves! Can't wait to see the finished product. I too, will be checking in on the progress of your latest creation!
Thanks guys. Spookineer, those two cutesyass elves were a real stretch for me, so this is my way of purging myself of that "cute" affliction when sculpting.
Thanks guys. Here are some more progress pics. Sculpting is done except for his tongue. I'm not sure about the hair yet, still playing around with my options.
He look amazing already. I am so excited about your new project and of course will watch for updates just like during the creation of Morbida!
