So since I have a hand in the planning of
upcoming HDH challenges, one might think
I would have a jump start of sorts on the current
challenges. Nope. Never happens. I have weeks to plan
for my projects, but always wait until the eleventh hour to
get started. I work better under pressure. Or not.
The current challenge at HDH is Nailed It!!
After a quick trip the thrift store for "dense dolly heads",
I came up with this......
I have always been a sucker for an old school mohawk.
After dismembering the dolly, I nailed 22 nails into said dolly's head
to resemble a mohawk.
Then, I painted the head with black gesso, which is amazing!!!
The coverage is awesome!!! One coat and I was ready to paint!
Lastly, I dry brushed some bronze metallic paint to hit all of the
highlights. Then I added a touch of rust to the nails for effect.
I decided to stop here, and save this cool dude for a future
project, as opposed to adding it onto a sub par base that I
am unhappy with in the end. Quit while you're ahead, Glo.
Thanks for stopping by!
Keep it Creepy!!
