Tibetan Deity Mask (Wrath)
I sculpted the initial shape out of clay and let it dry. I then used Warbla to create the structure and carved/added the details out of an air dry clay. Sculpt-or-coat and painting were the last two steps.

Trojan Helmet
For this project, I created a pattern for the front shape of the helmet with the nose piece. After cutting it out of felt, I pulled a felt cap over a wooden head to get the helmet shape. Using E6000, I glued the two felt shapes together and cut around the edges until it was in the shape I wanted. I used a thicker industrial felt for the top piece and used a cheap broom as the horsehair. After everything was glued together and I sanded the felt down to hide some seams, I did 6 coats of shellack, a coat of Sculpt-or-coat, and many layers of different spray paints.
