Finished Skin Taker

The Skin Taker

“why does your mouth move like that” 

and the skin-taker didn’t look at the girl but at the camera and said 

“TO GRIND YOUR SKIN”

Schlankwald

Schlankwald

They say that monsters come only at night,
That light will drive them away.
But not all creatures follow this rule,
Safety not certain during the day.

He hides on the fringes of your vision,
Brief glimpses of the distorted.
He slithers and writhes behind your eyes,
Reaching for you, limbs contorted.

Before you know it your children are taken,
And now it’s come down to you.
His breath is oppressive, his presence acidic,
He feels pity is undue.

Suddenly, trapped in his grasp so tight,
You struggle to break yourself free.
He laughs and he gurgles and he screeches with glee,
He turns your head for you to see.

Your children are crying though their eyes are removed,
They collapse, still and silent.
His arms and legs bend pulling you closer,
The man’s eyes dark and violent.

He strikes and he cuts, your skin flays open,
Your soul to weak to resist.
This should not have happened, if only you had listened,
Never go into his forest.

Costume Nearly Finished

Here is the finished paint job sans blood. Drawbacks to losing weight... custom fit costume doesn't fit perfectly anymore. Still have to figure out what to do with the eyes though.
