Best Of

This is a character I created for my finals. I’ve always wanted to create a full on werewolf but also by adding a twist to add to its character. That’s when I thought of combining both my favourite creatures, the werewolf and a wendigo. The idea of combining both creatures came to me because they both physically transformed from a human and both are associated with cannibalism. 

These are my references and sketches for the character design

The process

The teeth 

The sculpt 

 

 The silicone prosthetic, hair gluing and punching with a felt needle 

The costume 
 The headpiece I made using a headband and attaching twine making a grid for me to tie the strands of yarn that I cut, tired and brushed out with a pet brush. Then tying them onto the twine base making it look like a full head of fur 

The antlers I made using aluminium foil shaped into antlers covered it with latex and tissue creating texture with the tissue and added a bit of colour to it. 

The cloak I made following a easy tutorial I found online 

The application 

Prosthetic pieces application 
 

Putting on the costume, popping in the plastic eyes and added more texture and colours to the prosthetics.

FINAL LOOK

Hey there. I work as a a designer for theatre in NYC.  As a way to fill my time off in isolation, I’ve been turning myself into comic book villains and monsters throughout most of my isolation- and it’s been super fun. This is my take on the Marvel supervillain Apocalypse through the lens of H.R. Giger. The suit is Eva and foam clay- using methods very inspired by Ted Haines work for SWS. The prosthetic is good ol’ cotton and latex built up in layers over a plaster of my head- very inspired by Rick Baker’s Miss Shock tutorial on YouTube. Hope you enjoy!
