I am still alive, just been busy :D
I decided I "needed" a wind motion Hornbill for the patio so I made one



The weighted mask and shield serves as a counterbalance and wind vane


Sculpted Styrofoam and paper mache


3 coats of paper pache, the last one white paper


Acrylic paint, posterboard "feathers", and a couple coats of clear polyurethane
