The death mask of Egyptian pharaoh Tutankamon is made of gold inlaid with colored glass and semiprecious stone. The mask comes from the innermost mummy case in the pharaoh's tomb, and stands 54 cm (21 in) high and weighs around 11kg. The pharaoh is portrayed in a classical manner, with a ceremonial beard, a broad collar formed of twelve concentric rows consisting of inlays of turquoise, lapis lazuli, cornelian and amazonite. The traditional nemes head-dress has yellow stripes of solid gold broken by bands of glass paste, coloured dark blue. On the forehead of the mask are a royal uraeus and a vulture's head, symbols of the two tutelary deities of Lower and Upper Egypt: Wadjet and Nekhbet. Above his perfect golden cheeks, Tutankhamon has blue petals of lapis lazuli in imitation of the kohl make-up he would have worn in life. - www.egyptiandreams.co.uk
O.k, the nose is too fat and some people have said that it seems Axl Rose, from Guns`n`Roses, but what counts is the intention... Included Sketchup and Pepakura files to help the assembly.

O nariz está meio de batata e até já disseram que parece o Axl Rose, do Guns`n`Roses, mas o que vale é a intenção... Modelos em Sketchup e Pepakura no arquivo, para auxiliar na montagem.

ReplyDeletesorry, Karen,
DeleteYou can use the Pepakura file and Sketchup model as instructions, because you can see the model in 3D, rotate and see the parts one-by-one, separated... :)
