Piece De Resistance.
'Epoxy Nightmare'
| From my first routine in the Altar Flame,a mummy from another time and place. |
| A view from above. Note three fingers and toes. Claws made from the putty. |
| Klingon like bone ridges and
horns are again made from the putty. The right arm is made to move by
means of a music box motor which winds a flat sewing machine bobbin.
This takes up the slack in a piece of invisible thread and draws the arm
to the position shown. The music box works is embedded in the bier. The
body is basically a plastic skeleton modified with the putty and covered
in glue soaked tissue paper, then aged to look like dried skin. For
storage I found a great art deco candy box from the 1930's at a local
flea market, it made a wonderful casket. Imagination and epoxy putty can
do strange things.
