Mandan Indian Shrine
Posted by ajlafleche on Thursday, November 24, 2005 4:02 PM

I just finished this white metal 54 mm vignette by EMI of two Mandan Indians at a shrine. This tribe lived along the upper Missouri River. One skin wrapped pole represents the Great Spirit, Lord of Life, and the other The Old Woman Who Never Dies, representing Mandan subsistence through corn and the Buffalo. The crow was modified from the one included in the Andrea Crow Scout figure. Ground work is a combination of Woodland Scenics, El Viejo Dragon and 3 Guyz. Feathers are cut down fly tying feathers and the rosettes are represented with home-made decals. This was painted primarily with Andrea and Vallejo acrylics.

Remember, if the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy.
