The Big Beastie!!

Those of you that know my work will have realised that I don't often do 'pretty'.
Well I definitely didn't, with this commission!
I was asked to make a Monkfish - well until I 'googled' one, I hadn't quite realised what I was letting myself in for!

  2. That truly is a face only a momma monkfish could love ;) Nice work Mags! I really like the shading you did in the paint job.

    Have you ever tried eating monkfish? They taste better than they look.

  11. He looks real and fantastic, but icky at the same time. I would say you successfully captured the image of a monkish in clay. Bravo!
