While working on my Bloodymary Horror Fanfic (as well as some other ideas I’ll rant about after showing this) — as well as my massive choose your own adventure story — I’ve decided it would be a wonderful idea to add another project on top of that and create something I’ve had on my mind since Iron Lung first released.
I really, really wanted to make a large model of The Eel.
Now, will it be SUPER big? No, I don’t have an appropriate studio for that. I have my small little apartment where I’m using my bed and floor as a workspace. But will she still be quite large? Oh hell yeah.
About two weeks ago I bought all the materials I needed to create about a 3.5 ft long (that is an estimate, she might end up being four foot!) Paper Mache Eel model. I’ve dedicated a good chunk of hours during my weekends to work on her slowly, bit by bit, as I want her to be perfect. I have bought Barbie’s and miniature skeletons as I plan to use those to attach to her body to create that cool body horror effect you see going on; on The Eels official model. I also bought a plastic skull where I will be modeling her head separately and THEN attach to her main body once both parts are ready for the clay process.
Here’s some W.I.P images v
The basic shape of her main body is finished. She is rounded on both sides and is ready for that paper mache layer. Where then I will go in and use… paper mache clay—which I have never once in my life have ever used. I haven’t touched clay in years either. But that won’t stop me!!!
I am absolutely reporting my process as well as I can, as well as putting every single recording into a step by step process so that way if I am satisfied how this turns out (and if a good sum of people ask) I’ll share how I created her from the moment she spawned.
As for updates on the horror fanfic I have going on, it’s slowly being revised. I work a 9-5 (more like a 8-6 most days) so that alone is exhausting and obviously time consuming. But I promise it’s coming and no I did not forget about it.
And, additionally, I have many more fanfiction ideas I’d like to write and share! So the Bloodymary horror fanfic may turn into one-of-many one shots. A few ideas I’ve had so far are . . .
