February 2020 in Horror Character Contest

Hi! I saw the contest and thought I'd share some of my work. I didn't see if there were and limitations on how many pics or vids you can share, so I apologize if I broke the rules. In any case, here's some of my work.

I call this one Oppenheimer's children. It's a mixed media piece, using epoxisculpt, smoothcast 300 resin castings, and a bit of latex. I was reading a lot about chernobyl and atomic testing while I was doing this. It's shape is vaguely meant to represent a splitting atom.

The next piece I call Specimen #1. It's an animatronic display, cobbled together from 3D printed parts,servos, silicone, and a discarded halloween skeleton. It's a robot that responds to sources of light and shadow. It's brain is an arduino. Here are a few pics and videos.

Here's a concept I did a few years back in Zbrush I call "Husk". It's taken a while but I've grown a lot more comfortable with digital sculpting. It's become one of my favorite tools.
