Morlock from “The Time Machine”

One of my favorite sci fi films is the often overlooked 1960 adaptation of “The Time Machine” by H. G. Wells, and one of my absolute favorite monster designs is the film’s depiction of the Morlocks, a race of subterranean cannibals that herd and prey upon the peaceful but dim-witted Eloi tribe that lives above them. So, I wanted to show tribute to a somewhat forgotten classic by making my own.

my Morlock is a foam filled latex mask, painted with liquitex paints.

    Being a longtime fan of the George Pal picture from the 1960s myself, I like this, good job! But, John, did you intend to make it look as though it's a mix of the two characters? The Morlocks and Eloi? Because in my honest observation it does. But great job still on the sculpting, painting, and wig. Hey besides finding an audience of buyers here on SWSCA there's a couple of great Mask Groups on Facebook too that buy, sell and trade masks. Maybe show this there and see what happens, who knows you might find collectors who'd purchase them? That is if you are interested in getting into that because it does take up a large chunk of your time to fulfill orders once they get going with interest.
