it's not really a squid head. for a month i made myself do a quick 30 minute painting each day. in the process of doing that i started painting monsters in suits. this is the one that the figure is based one

i plan on keeping it all one piece just to make it easier to mold and cast.

Does remind me like a squid head.
And then suited.
Kind of like Kozik's Salary Ika.

After a bit of pondering I think I'm going to leave this guy as a one off, and make some minifigures for casting. There will be a mini version of this guy plus some other crazy figures. There will me more of an ed Roth/madball feel to them. There will still be dressed up monsters too.

The minis will be easier to make, thus cheaper and more accessible, and hopefully more fun. I may have one sculpted this week. I'll be working on them in between other things

Ed Roth? Mad Ball? I like the sound of that. Sounds interesting, lately I've been getting more and more into Mini figures, maybe it's because I'm running out of space.

Yay. Looking good. I can't wait to see the first casts. It also looks like something fun to customize.

Suited monsters are rad and minis would be good. I kind of like the bigger size though.
Clear green fade.

what's wrong with a scaled down version of the first one?

I like that one.

don't worry, there will be a scaled down version of him too. i plan on making quite a few of these. i'll be able to sculpt them pretty quickly and i may outsource the casting of them.

you'll get a monster in a suit kirkland, i'll probably sketch him up tonight
