Serpent Stick v.2.0

Description

Minor bug fixes.
Additional creativity.

This stick was stained with my airbrush rather than a paintbrush and the finish is more even (the mottling on the head was intentional, but the pattern didn't get photographed very well - my mistake).
Rather than spray painting white on the belly, it was airbrushed with the stain diluted with linseed oil and sanded down a bit. The back was done with undiluted stain.
The marbling on the eyes was done with a paintbrush and unmixed green and yellow paint.
The teeth were also done with a paintbrush. The smeared blood on the face was airbrushed on.
The head is quite asymmetrical, with the facial features being carved from the natural bumps found on the root knob.

When used by myself as a walking stick, I get a good handhold on the neck

In my opinion, definitely one of, if not the best one yet.

Taken with my HTC phone camera and put together with Photoshop.
