Ooooo, I love snakes! Got a pet cornsnake myself How long did it take for you to do this one? Very nicely done on the scale texture. I'm liking the brown colors very much.
This mask takes about twelve hours from start to finish. It's all the tooling & all those tiny snake heads, plus sewing those eyes in takes forever.
I've done many Medusas (Medusae?), but usually they're metallic colors drybrushed on black which is a LOT quicker. This was a sort of challenge to myself, to see if I could do it.
I also did a Diamondback Rattlesnake version...I ought to upload that one too. It was CRAZY complicated.
The more complicated, the more fun, right? ~^ I really like your masks. I wish I had the patience to do 3-D art, and I also like your traditional art as well.
