Project: General Kala

My Klytus Masks have been quite sought after. I've been commissioned by over eleven people to date, who had requested I make one for them. It would be interesting to see how hey got on with the rest of their costumes...
Follow my latest order for a Klytus mask I was also contacted by someone asking me to design and make the headdress and tunic for the General Kala character who, for those not in the know, was Emperor Ming's head of security in the 1980 movie Flash Gordon. Played by Mariangela Melato, an Italian actress who sadly passed away this year having lost her struggle with cancer. 

So, in order to help keep Mariangela Melato's 'character' alive, here is a sneak peek at my latest completed design. Still in it's sketch-up form because I have to tailor it slightly better to ensure it'll fit the person who has commissioned me to make these pieces for her…

Will we see completed Klytus and Kala costumes side by side?

Will keep you up dated as this projects develops... :-)
