Female Spackle

Description

Piece 2/3 of my Final Major Project.
Concept art for the book trilogy "Chaos Walking" by Patrick Ness.
I visualized, illustrated, and sculpted "the Spackle", an alien species coexisting with humans on a remote planet.
I've sculpted an example of what a female member of the species might look like. The differences between the two genders are supposedly almost impossible to spot, so I've endeavored to make the details as subtle as possible. The female Spackle has a little bit more of a fleshier tone to them, I used a lot more pinks and light tones to color her. Her lichen grows in different places and is also of a different color. Her ears open more, and she has a curious, innocent expression.

Materials: Super Sculpey, Sculpey Firm, Badger Patriot - airbrush, airbrush paints, foil, wire, wooden base, hot glue
Dimensions: ~40 cm tall
Time: 1 week per piece, 9 weeks for the whole project (including concept art and sketchbook work)
