frog suit mario mini munny

savedaprincess · **Posted:** Sat Jul 19, 2008 2:48 pm

i've always loved how cute mario looks in the frog and tanooki suits, so.. i decided to make it into a munny!
its pretty much done, just have to do a few coats of krylon matte..

i put the clay directly onto the head and just started shaping from there.. and then just epoxied on the nose when it was dried and sanded. then i sealed it with primer just to make sure nothing would move lol.
i added in the underwater enemies just so it would look more like a collage.

(prang air-hardening clay, a long day of waiting for the clay to dry, lots of sanding [180 and 320 grit], krylon primer, acrylic paint, sharpie, and krylon matte)

That looks awesome! You definitely took it in a really interesting direction with the collage look. I think that step right before that being solid looking is what makes it work! Thanks for posting those "in progress" shots.
