Golem goes to Mordheim
I've always been fascinated by the Golem character of the silent movie directed and starring by Paul Wegener in 1920. The Golem is a clay colossal "monster" created by a Rabbi to defend the jewish community in a 16th century Prague.
This magical and sinister creature, in my opinion, is a perfect
character for my city of the damned, Mordheim. I started to sculpt body
in polymer clay using a ogre head and green stuf for details as gloves,
boots and his hilarious hair. For the star shaped amulet I used a metal
pendant.
My pencil sketch to start my Wegener Golem sculpture.
