Clownfish letterbox

Description

At a Christmas party a bride to be asked me if I could make a letter box to use at the wedding feast in the shape of a clownfish. So several months later here it is. Made from chickenmesh , rodentmesh, newspapers, wallpaper glue, woodpulp, mdf board, acrylic putty, various paints and varnishes.

I never before worked with this medium so made a lot of mistakes and learned a lot about it. One tip I can give anyone is always apply the papermache in sections and let it dry before doing the next one. If you don't the papermache will dry and shrink causing the paper skin to pull, warp (which was a nice effect on the fins) and cause tears and tents in the paper.
