Hey guys,
I have had this mask finished for a while, just had not had time to post photos. I finished this after I sculpted our very popular duck bill prosthetic, as something that was more “me” than a duck bill. I just grabbed some clay and made it without and real plan. And I think it worked.
Alien Bone Armor Mask – Cast resin and hand painted. Michael Bielaczyc, 2011.
It is available to purchase over at our props section on the Aradani Costumes page.
So it has taken me so long to get the module published (The Tomb of Kochun; a Pathfinder open design RPG) I decided to repaint the cover. I really feel that this is the first painting that I have done after taking Larry Elmore’s painting class that shows all that I learned under his mentoring.
The Tomb of Kochun, oil on panel, 16×20, 2011.
This is the cover for a module that is being published by Signal Fire Studios. Written by Dane Collins, Josh Harper and myself.
finally able to get a little painting done. it has been such a busy summer. it was supposed to be my time for lots of art and costume making, but it seems i have been running from one thing to the next, while breaking technology along the way. but tonight, i finally got to sit down and put some paint down on the tomb of kochun painting!
i also have a commission that i have doing sketches and photo reference for, so hopefully i will be slapping some paint on that canvas soon. and i need 3 tomato based painting done for the East Nashville tomato festival. so i better get to damn work.
oh, and my review for Libertycon2011 is almost finished. be watching conspyer.com for that update.
