A commissioned mask for Rein of his gryphon!
As I cannot cast resin in my current situation, this was built on a blank crafted by the talented yellow-fr3ak (Freakhound Studios). I love this chunky eagle face and it works particularly well for some gryphon characters, I think!!
I made some minor modifications to the blank, including re-sculpting (mostly around the beak, nares, and birdlips). The eyes are hand painted resin half-spheres. I had some issues with my airbrush, so the painting is done by hand. Furred, and approximately 300-350 feathers were each trimmed and set individually by hand. Very tedious, but rewarding!
Not shown: Blue silicone tongue (I'll try to get some shots of someone wearing it later!).

Great base, LOVELY finishing and modifications (love the attention to detail and accuracy you have). Plus... damn, those feathers...! Seriously a lovely piece.
