Desert Tank "Beast"




Two half days of work later and I present you: the desert tank. It's big, dirty and has seen better days (...maybe there is some truth to the old saying, that a piece of art mirrors the artist. What is definitely true is that I invented the foregoing old saying on the spot.)
I learned a lot by designing and making this piece, mostly how to not kill my computer while going nuts on detail.

One Day Challenge - the Tank




I wanted to see what I could accomplish in a day. On top of that, a beautiful summer day. So I challenged myself with this beast of a tank. Still missing a few details, but I had to catch a few breaths of fresh air inbetween.
Anyway, in case of a zombie-apocalypse (and yes, there are a lot of people who wish for one) this will be my ride to the grocery store to stack up on brains...I mean food. Food. Yes...

Woodsprite




Not much to say. It's a woodsprite, an inhabitant of a dark, enchanted forest. Not quite the place where princesses get lost (in a happy, careless way) and start singing/dancing with a bunch of little birds or other critters. More like a place where evil witches, satyrs, scrubby wolves etc... you get the picture.
The mask is partly inspired by Kaonashi, the creepy creature from "Spirited away", partly by african tribal masks. I tried a traditional tree face before, but I like the emotionless stare and the white mask is a neat focal point.
