Death/skull mask

Details

I think I achieved a cross between death eaters from Harry Potter and Mexican sugar skulls for day of the dead. I made it for Haloween.

I did the paper mache in two goes, first all skull on a plastercast of the face of my husband, dried in the oven for a few hours, next the teeth.
I put the raised design on with 3D glue and then painted black and silver.

The whole thing took me about two days in between vacuumcleaning cooking and dog walking.

It weighs 120 gramms
