TANITH'S AWAKENING SERPENT GODDESS by Glitterwolf

[Glitterwolf 207898]

This is called TANITH's AWAKENING.

A sideproject from my Lost World Project.

 

It was born due to @knarthex's daughter Alsnia, showing a pic of a cute python with flowers on it's head.

Then @Pezler the Polychromatic made up a little story in my Lost World Project.

I had already seen a great Serpent Goddess statue in a thread from @Chris Palmer and after some suggestions from @malefactus and @Chaoswolf things really got out of hand.

More forumites commented and suggested stuff.

 

Anyway here it is.

The Ananconda and the Python are plastic toys.

The little snakes are from the GW Bastiladon.

The Sugarskulls are from Greenstuffworld and a present from @Erifnogard THX!

@knarthex also donated lots of flock and moss.

 

The little bird and the smaller pots are Bones.

Alsnia is Bones Sarah the Seeress 77210

The bigger pottery, treasures and vases are Resin pieces from Minimonsters and Ristul's Extraordinary Market.

 

For the whole story and WIP's

Hope you guys like it.

Building was made out of foam.

I used some milliput and a Greenstuffworld Aztec Motif Rolling Pin.

 

 

TANITH is the living statue of the serpent goddess, Alsnia performs the ritual to summon TANITH, and she breaks free from her stone form.

Superbly done!

[malefactus 55004]

That is one of those WONDERFULLY crafted pieces that yields a new discovery with each viewing. It is a BEAUTIFUL narrative creation. FANTASTICALLY WELL DONE!

It was also great fun watching it develop...an inspiring process.

That is crazy cool, even though the term "side project" escapes me! This looks like a major endeavour!

Let's just say things got out of hand...

 

Really fun to build though.

It was a Toy Snake from Safari.

Used Reaper Liner to prime it.

Thank you!

 

The Forumites were helping a lot, giving advice, sending stuff and I talked to Knarthex's daughter Alsnia ( PM) to discuss this.

She was allright with me using her name and giving her a role in the story!

 

It's fun to see what one can do with a few plastic toys snakes and some foam...

It turned out as beautifully as I had expected it to. I hope you had as much fun making it as it was watching you create it.

I did have a lot of fun, and your input was very valuable if not priceless!

I think my favorite detail is the lucha libre mask style painting of the skulls. The whole thing is fantastic and makes me feel lazy in my painting.

It was fun to do those skulls like that.

And it took me a while to get it all finished.

 

A close up from the Lizard statue heads, I realized I didn't show them that well.

Pic is from an earlier stage.
