So, I've been making these Cthulhu Ornaments for Cephalopodmas. My plan is to make 5 of each style. I've sold 2 wingless ones already, have 2 ready for the final paint and varnish, and one more wingless freshly sculpted. The second 2 wingless ones will go up tomorrow early in the day.

One of them is a white pumpkin with a light greenish grey cloak. I discovered my crackle finish is still usable, so it got the aging treatment.

Working on jack o' lantern guys today. had to burnish 2 before I could paint. Did a backdrop sort of painting for when I shoot these guys for my etsy shop.
