Here we have a possum. it is made completely out of fuchsia.
I was really honored to make this head. Seeing that the original head was one of my favorites.
One note.
I did have trouble getting a good front on shot that looked like it dose in real life. With this white fur you loose all shape if you have the slightest hint of over exposure. Outside will work better when it stops raining.

I'm biased for saying this, but this is totally your best work. :P I love the huge difference from shaving, airbrushing, etc from the last picture. You made this possum drop dead GORGEOUS! I'm absolutely in love with it. I love the way you did the ears, the nose, or well, the everything. That expression just seems to fit no matter what, huh? I can't picture her without it, really. I never expected the eyelashes, but I am so glad you added them!
Yeah.. Umm.. the lashes are my Floridian trailer trash addition. I always pictured the character like that.. Just a little. A classy broad and all. Just could go a little lighter on the makeup...
I took the artistic liberty, and went with what I envisioned a fuchsia possum would buy from the beauty section at a Wal-Mart at 3:30 AM.

I was going to say in the "sarcasm" submission that I believe the look could mean quite a few things. Right now, in my head I have a "Gurl, please.." and maybe a "you know I look good." right afterwards. Or she might just be judging whoever or whatever she's looking at. So yes, as a Floridian who use to live on eyeliner, mascara, eyeshadow, etc... I approve of the trailer trash lashes. She aint no hoe, but that's not what the neighbors think.
Oh WOW! This is incredible! I cannot get over how damn well you differentiate between species in your heads.. I know I've said it a billion times but I will continue to because it's true!! I just love that nose, and how you did the teeth and the ears. The eyes are so vivid too. You do some great work sir.
Definitely agreeing that you have an amazing talent for portraying these suits closely to their real animal equivalent, which is something a lot of makers have a hard time doing. Looks incredible, and I know Fuchsia is probably flipping out with excitement. I think I'm sold on who I want to make my secret character ;)
I think the real hard part is the compromise. You can make a suit that looks exactly like a possum, but it is not visually appealing. Or you can make a suit that looks like a dog, and call it a possum, and it will be adorable... but it will not look like a possum. So, picking the traits of the animal that are characteristic, but avoiding the ones that make it creepy is a hard task.
