Description My entry for s contest which ends today!
More Detail shots! [link]

Explaining sculpture: The skull animal is suffering because he has just been injured by some other creature. So he has to find a victim in order to rid of his poison otherwise it'll kill him before he can actually heal. So the skull animal has just poisoned his victim(woman) who finds herself feeling this uncontrollable desire to be free of her own skin and bones. With the skull poison overwhelming her she breaks open her ribcage with the help of the many skulls coming out of her. The skull animal's blood drips a lot with a skull forming at the end of the blood stream. Also the skull animal has placed his own stitches on the woman's lips so she doesn't scream much.

Time: 7-9 days
Materials: Firm Sculpey, Super Sculpey, wire and white Sculpey.
Acrylic paints used to paint it.

All Handmade by Me (Sarah)
Things I've done differently then what I normally do:

Woman: I didn't pay much attention to the woman's lower body muscles because that's not important to this piece the main focus is up top. Although the legs hopefully show the struggle. Also I only colored certain areas because it just didn't seem needed for the focus of this piece.

Skull beast: The front legs toes are based off a squirrels feet. Also I think the back legs I improved on very nicely. The whole entire skull is not shown because I decided to be different and cover it with the essential muscles. Anatomy may be off but it seems to fit. I did the fur different and I really love the outcome of it.

sorry for the long comment but it needed to be said because this piece is a bit of what I'd like to do more of.
