Welcome to the 365 project. MintIcecream and a bunch of others are also involved in this project and Mint actually came up with the idea. Everyday, you make a little project specified by a book with a theme.
My theme is Mystical Creatures. This includes dragons, griffons, unicorns, elves, trolls, dwarfs, popodawas, spirits, and many many others, but I'll probably mostly center on the more animal type creatures. Hope you enjoy my pieces, and I hope I can keep up with everything. -.-;
Prompt: what's your favorite animal? use it as your inspiration today.
My favorite animal are dogs, and one of my favorites of them is the doberman pincher. THus! I made an inugami out of a doberman head. For those that don't know, an inugami is the head of a dog created to watch over its master who buried their body, put food near the head for three day and not feed it. At the end of the third day, the dog is beheaded and, if done correctly, the head will follow its master and protect them until the master dies. Ya...morbid.
PROMPT: the first step is the hardest, so start small and make something that fits in the palm of your hand using only the materials in your immediate environment.
When I was a kid, I used to do these kind of paper sculptures. When mint said it had to fit in the palm of my hand and it needed to be ready accessible materials, I knew I had to do one of these. I haven't done them in forever. My roommate watched me make it and even supplied me a little bit of tape. It was really fun to make though, and I think it turned out cool. I might color it later and upload the photos of it.
Oh, and for those who might not be able to see what it is, its a wyvern. Not quite a dragon, but not a snake either. The perfect starter creature.
