On the final day of HAASHOW 2022, I decided I wasn't leaving the convention without a couple more creepy display masks (see previous post HERE if you missed it!) I mean, if the devilish Zagone Studios duo weren't terrifying enough for ya, how about these two wonderfully disgusting dead dudes from Closed Casket Studios! Good lord-- *choke! Closed Casket always has some of the most seriously insane, top of the line designs, and I adore their agonizing attention to realistic detail. Our first fiend, "Marrow" seems straight out of a Bernie Wrightson illustration, and aside from having a sorrowful skin condition, he also seems to be having one eerily eternal bad hair day! Now our moldier chum on the right, cleverly named "Mourning Breath", not only also has his eye on you, but his tear-away face just demands that you crawl right up to him (into his crypt) and give him a great big kiss! *smack! Ferociously fun, and gorgeously gruesome, --you can find out more about Close Casket Studios by CLICKING HERE, and stay tombed for rots more... errr, lots more HAASHOW highlights, right here at AEET, as well as over at THOIA as I get the mountain of photos organized...
They are both superb. I think if I had to pick a fave, I'd lean slightly toward Mourning Breath, simply because his or her paint job is so unexpected.
ReplyDeleteClosed Casket is new to me. All those milky white eyeballs! I Thanks you for passing along the link to their site.
It's a toss up but I think I'm leaning towards Marrow, I think it's a bit stronger sculpt, but yeah, I'd be happy with either of these, at least wearing them would be a step up from my regular face!
