Mosquito and Headless (Revisited)

The papier maché is done!

At long last, the beginning of the end of my antisocial summer-of-art-projects has come upon me. As I said a few entries ago, one of the models was going to be a 3D recreation of one of my 100 Days. Rarely do I ever consider anything I do, "good", but this sculpture (dubbed Mosquito) is as close to (what I consider) perfect as I've ever gotten with a private project.


If you're interested, take a minute or two and check out my bangin' process montage:

The song is "Out of Egypt, Into the Great Laugh of Mankind, and I Shake the Dirt From My Sandals As I Run" by Sufjan Stevens.


But wait, there's more.

When we moved from Texas over a year ago, we had to leave one papier maché sculpture I made as a kid that my mom really liked. I decided that since I was working in the same medium again, I could remake that same sculpture for her at the same time as I was working on Mosquito. That being said, this is Headless (Revisited):

And how it was made:

The song is "The Captain" by Guster.


P.S. We're on day 98. It's been quite the summer.
