From suggester: "The Doctor will see you now by *EvilInstinct struck me immediately and was recognizable as a black death plague doctor in every little detail down to the very characteristic mask. Not only has it been beautifully sculpted and scaled well the little details such as worn leather, dubious liquid remedies to the tiny knives on his belt have been painted and crafted expertly."

Description

Donning an avian-inspired mask and covering themselves in whatever else they could find, plague doctors took to the streets of Medieval Europe in an attempt to halt the advance of the Black Death.

Here is one interpretation of what a plague doctor may have looked like wandering the quarters, tools of his trade at the ready.

-------------------------------------------------

Made from Super Sculpey clay over aluminum wire armature. Glass bottles are made from clear cast acrylic resin, partially mixed with dye.

The base is scrap wood that has been shaped, stained and lacquered, with a layer of clay added for the cobblestone.

Painted with Delta Ceramcoat paints.
