Here are the drawings for the Green Mask and Black Mask. For the green, I'm picturing the top half patina copped with Boston ferns for the beard. The metalwork is totally inspired by one of the most beautiful facades here in Chicago designed by Louis Sullivan for the Carson Pirie Scott Building in 1899. I'm thrilled to finally create something inspired by the exterior of that building.
The Black Shaman Mask has a lot of fun details and textures. I'm looking forward to painting the fur on this one. The hammered iron of the rest of the mask will be a challenge but another I'm looking forward to.And the scrunched up face makes me laugh.
Now how crazy would it be to see some of these made?
Do you all have a favorite so far?
