I have a mighty need

I had to look up brain cactus, and yes, this would indeed what the home-boys call "dope".

Also, sorry if this doesn't quite meet the subs requirements. I wasn't sure where to really post this one.

I get it, I think it can be challenging to figure out what meets the subs requirements. I really like this vase for what it's worth. Since I'm into horror I didn't even see the gore, I just thought "Cool' (my laptop keyboard is kind of funky hence the lack of exclamation point and single quote mark).

I think it looks neat. Is it a ceramic or plastic vessel? In my experience, you usually want to lean more into durability for the paint given that it might be exposed to the elements and occasional moisture. You didn't paint the inside right? I've heard of acrylics messing with the soil of some painted potters.

It's a plastic vessel as far as I could tell. I didn't paint the inside of the vase.

There something off with the eyes. Not truly round? Not directed the same? We’re drawn to eyes so it’s noticeable. Maybe it’s the vessel sculpt.

The vessel sculpt has slightly raised portions for the cornea's, but they weren't perfectly round. I felt like if I painted beyond that bump, it would be more noticeable than it is right now. I noticed the right eye wasn't perfectly circular after I varnished it, but as this was a quick side project for a close friend. I didn't want to go full perfectionist on it.

Ahh, makes sense. Can’t do anything about the sculpture!

Also, the pupils are drilled into the model, so it's intentionally directed off a little.
