Hunting in the Darkness - KD:M
11 Dec 23: Inspiration for a Baby Eater
I consistently find that the start of the project is usually the most difficult. Trying to pick colours and work out placement usually presents a challenge that I have to think on for a bit before inspiration hits. Then, once I’ve picked a direction, I’m usually off and running.
For this mini, I knew generally what I was looking for: Christmas colours, with some other contrasting spot colours. I knew red and white for sure, but not only those. What other colours and where?
I went looking for inspiration. Not sure how, but I found this statue:
The Kindlifresser (Child Eater) of Bern. Delightful. 
The origins of this 500 year old statue seem to be lost, but it’s spot on for a KD Anti-Santa. The greens, yellows and blues are what I was looking for, and the placement would work well.
