SCULPTURE: "Creaturaffe of the Black Lagoon"

 

Today, I finished up another fun little experiment based one of my all-time favorite movies..."Creature from the Black Lagoon". I thought it would be fun to see if I could do a mash-up of something other than a mutated humanoid. So in my little brain...the obvious choice was a GIRAFFE...a "Creaturaffe". I also wanted to experiment with making a diorama with swampy water effects, without using a ton of expensive epoxy resin (which I've never tried using before). Many of the resin sculptures I've seen look cool, but they often lose details on the sculpted things under the "water". So...here's what I ended up with.
