Gorilla Mask, Made with Plaster Cloth, Paper Mache and Air Dry Clay

This was an experiment, but I think it turned out great. The plaster cloth shell was formed over a WED clay form, then a small amount of texture and detailing was added using paper mache and air dry clay. It only took a few days, so it would make a great school project. Someone mentioned in a comment that a unicorn would be nice. I have a unicorn in my mask book. You can search inside the book on to see it.
