Goblin Mask Painted

So here is the goblin mask with a fresh new paint job. I was really aiming to achieve that nasty mottling of the skin reminiscent of the orc and goblin characters in LOTR. To finish it off i wanted to add some cool "tribal" warpaint. I've always thought those types of markings were so visually striking. The paints i used were Monster Makers latex paints, in which i enjoyed using very much, so easy to work with. Hope you like!

Goblin Mask- 2013 Kings Island Halloween Haunt

Hello everybody,  it's been a little while. This is my latest creation coming from Kings Island Halloween Haunt, as a part of their makeup crew this season. Prior to the season i was asked if i might be interested in sculpting a mask this year and of course i was in. Usually i tend to sculpt small, so i thought it'd be a good opportunity to add something a little larger to my portfolio. I was pretty much given free range as to what the mask could be. I don't know if its a good thing or not, but of course i reverted to sculpting an orc/goblin mask because i just love those characters, thanks to LOTR no doubt. Kings Island was of course expecting a quickish turn around, so this sculpt is roughly 20 hrs of work. I so wanted to push it further, but simply wasn't able to. This was the final result, hope you'll enjoy :)
