ChilmarkGryphon Photo by AnimeJutsu. My original idea for the flames (heatformed plexiglass) didn't work out due to time constraints. I'm going to find some orange/yellow taffeta to do the flames in if I wear this again, and also going to figure out a better way to keep it centered on my back.
Prop is pink foam surfaced in strip paper mache wood glue gesso. I find that the gesso works best for smoothing if you stipple it on with a sponge, it's easier to sand the pebbled texture out than to sand out brushstrokes.
  • katringa The structure and paintjob on that center circle thing is just stunning. The mottled look is just flawless. It looks like you grabbed it out of an old Aztec temple, dusted it off and secured it to your back. I'm in awe! 13 years ago
