Armor From Julius Caesar, Jazmin Andrews Dec 2017

Fox Mask- Le Petite Prince, Jazmin Andrews Dec 2017

Fox Mask- Le Petite Prince, Jazmin Andrews

Jazmin Andrews

To construct this piece I used Warbla. I heated the Warbla over a generic mask to get the general silhouette, and changed the shape from there. I decided to paint the face with acrylic paint, used faux fur to contruct the ears, and added a small piece of leather to create a change in texture for the nose. The base of the mask is stippled with copper and gold tones.
