Step 6Planet of the Oops
How did I choose this glorious color, you must be wondering?
For whatever reason, I decided in advance that I wasn't going to actually envision and select a color for this mask. I was going to go to Home Depot's paint center, march up to the "Oops!" shelf, and paint this mask according to whatever improperly-mixed paint was available. There wasn't much.
I ended up buying a gallon of hideous, booger-colored paint for five dollars, and a quart of a pale flesh-tone for a buck. The color that I used for the skin is a mixture of the two colors in approximately equal proportions.
Here I have put two full coats of the skin-paint on his face and allowed them to dry. I've done an elaborate masking job afterwards, and begun the more tedious process of painting the nails and rings... all the bits that are meant to be "metal".
