this is my first contest entry,hope you like it. The story goes that one day a guy (this guy) did somethign to really tick this voodoo practitioner off.like something totally major,probably involving trash.so,he gets cursed,causing his skull to fall out.and begin to fuse itself to trash. He,now just a head, developed a hunger for it.so,he eats trash,"whats so bad?"He eats it before its trash. He eats any thing with the potential to be trash. Old dirty socks,while there still on your feet! Half eaten food, that happens to still be in your hands. And he can be any where at any time,a real pain in the neck.

The idea came from a long sleepless night while shooting spit balls at a mirror.I origionally invisioned a giant spit ball with one eye,and a bunch of sharp teeth.Didnt happen. The first thing i did as cut out a random shape in cardboard.

Like this^.Then I piled a bunch of crushed up newspaper on to it and secured it with losts of

masking tape(aww,no pic). I mixed me up some paper mache,and covered it in a few layers of that. The result was something that looked like a newsprint rock. I looked at this for a while and then sketched out a design. After that I started sculpting an eye socket and nose bone thing out of clay. I let these dry than hot glued them on.

I took out some papier mache clay,and smoothed out the edges. I painted it up some and hot glued the eye in. I also added teeth the same way.

And I painted more,and glue a bunch of trash to him, just torn up paper.Added more paint,hot glue to make him look like hes dripping something.Then I put him on a platform in the basket,surrounded by more paper.yay!
