India ink on paper

Morgan, TBN

April 2021

Didn't like and still don't really like either of these two drawings. So much so back then that I archived it from my insta cos I couldn't stand looking at them (and I was embarrassed that i seemingly downgraded in skill)

insta notes:

so uhh I finished this sometime last week but got too lazy to make a post and now I dont remember which day I finished it

i started these at the same time as my mako drawing and oooh boy they'd been wips for wayy too long

ngl I had no idea what to do for the background and everything after the initial cell shading was just me playing around. I like the finished piece for the pink one but I dont rlly like the bg effects on the orange one.

orange one was supposed to have a shotgun of some sorts but uhhh something something the hand position was dif than what I had and I just didnt do it

This idea came from Halloween day 2020, and I brainstormed possible ideas Oct/Nov 2020. This whole endeavor was inspired by seeing articulated finger extensions on youtube.

This took a lot of time. There were quite a lot of lulls, but days upon days of work went into this. I didn't start taking progress pictures until ~October 2021, so a lot of the process just lives in my head.

By far the most difficult part of the project was figuring out the template for the crow mask itself. I knew of the whole wrap a body part in clingwrap and then duct tape to get a template, which I did around my head to get the inner headpiece, but that only works for fitted things.

I did a whole bunch of tomfoolery over gr10 winter break to get around this. I make like a paper mockup of my head, and then I built off of it with paper tubes to get general shape and structure of the crow mask down. This took so long omfg. I wish I'd taken a picture. I made a huge mess of the house for weeks over the break as I slaved over this stupid shite. Once i'd gotten it,,, it was just like,,,, kinda rudimentarily figuring out what size the foam pieces would be 😭

It worked out eventually, but man was it annoying 💀

I don't think I worked on it much after that until sept/oct 2021. Beginning of october was the final rush because I really wanted it done for the halloween.

When gluing together the pieces, I didn't have any barge contact cement so it was a struggle. Initially I was using a contact cement, but it didn't work well with the EVA foam, and I found that I was able to just pull the glue off once it'd become tacky (wouldn't even damage the foam - was just laying on top of it). So I used a lot of superglue and... other types of glue I can't remember to force em together.

Used a dremel tool and foam clay to smoothen the seams and add more details.

Magnets are embedded in the jaw for movement and to hold the jaw in place. Initially, I wanted the lower jaw to move up and down as I move my jaw, but I never figured out a way to get the torque to achieve that (and it was too late to go down that rabbit hole once i'd realised that the jaw wasn't working as I'd hoped).

Painting was a couple layers of mod podge followed by acrylic paint and then a couple sealing coats of varnish.

Teeth were made out of peachy-coloured polymer clay and glued into the mouth after it was painted. They were used to mould the foam clay gums prior to painting.

Then it was done!
