Mechanical Apoctopus No2by *monsterkookies

Traditional Art / Sculpture / Other

In a future world that has been destroyed by humans, only creatures in the darkest corners of the Earth have survived. The Apoctopus learns to adapt in the depths of an ocean whose waters had been tainted with the bi-products of the nuclear industry, some several centuries ago...

Of course, like a modern day Octopus he has eight long tentacles, which intertwine with eachother creating a tangled mess of tentacle knots. Each tentacle is slightly different, with brassy suction cups and plenty of texturing. His face is definitely not that of your regular octopus, as he has had to adapt to his harsh environment. He's got a row of nails running down the middle of his head - for protection, of course. His eyes are black and glazed over with only the slightest glimpse of life in his pupils, and he breathes water through a three-port filtration mask.

He looks to be a rusted steel in colour, with blotches of gold, bronze, and antique brass. Although this creature looks to be made from metal, he is not - he is completely handsculpted from polymer clay with the addition of a few metal findings. This piece has been glazed with a satin finish for a slight sheen and durability.
