Artist's Comments

Wow, thanks to everyone for the overwhelming positive response and the DD. A hug for you all. :hug:


--EDIT--
5 is for sale: [link]

....
This is why I haven't gotten anything done in the last two weeks. Almost non-stop work on this.

....


Body:
Base form made of masking tape and paper; covered by multiple layers of blended wet plaster tape.

Hands:
Sculpey clay. Fingers are vintage fountain pen nibs with writing ink. I wrote with them for quite a while to get the desired look.

Eyes:
Outer rims- Smaller is a chap stick cap, larger is a thimble.
Inside- Larger is a part from a circuit board, smaller is a metal nut. I couldn't find anything else and besides, it kind of adds to the mismatched steampunk type look.

"Hair" is just cut yarn.

Skeleton key is from a hotel sometime in the early 1900's.

Paint:
All done with acrylics; finished with several coats of matte sealing spray.

Height: Just under 11 inches.

....

I would sell it but 1) I'm attached to it. 2) If I sold it then I wouldn't have one and that was why I made it. 3) I probably couldn't get enough out of it for it to be worth all the backbreaking, labor-intensive work.

I'm aware that it's far from perfect. But I'm pretty pleased with it. Now if I can ever recover from this I'll make a better 5...

THIS IS ABSOLUTELY INSANE. I'm starting to believe that you are not a normal teenager, and in fact you are a professional prop maker posing as one.
