Savage War-Pick

This began as a commission project, pitched as "a mace with a skull on the end". I suggested that a head with skin might be more interesting. I focused on sculpting a brutal weapon with raw, beaten iron, encasing a bog-mummified head with a chained crown, and added interest with the antler final and leather wrappings and nails. For the head sculpt, my reference was still images from the film, "The Northman", where a Willem Defoe's mummified head is very nearly a character if it's own. The eyes here, I chose to texture as cloudy amber.
