Description My submission to Relogic's Terraria's The Labor of Hallow's Eve event
forums.terraria.org/index.php?…


This Hallowed/Crystal Mimic was made with a wood treasure box as a base, adding a torque friction hinge so the lid stays in position, and sculpted details with Magic Sculpt/Apoxie two-part resin clay. After sanding and smoothing, it was painted with acrylic paint and varnished, the resin 'gem' accents were added after as a final touch.

The tongue is removable utilizing strong neodymium magnets in order to hold up the Trick-or-treat container and to allow the mimic to be closed to it's passive or defensive state

The Jack-O-Lantern featured in-game was recreated using just two-part clay and painted, but this time utilizing UV reactive paint to make the eyes 'glow'. It was hallowed out and used as a treat container for the mimic, with real sisal rope for the handle.

Inside the mimic's mouth is a cute 'easter egg' in the form of a Goodie Bag, an in-game loot bag containing various items, dropped from killed enemies only during the game's Halloween event. The orange string around the bag is real and not sculpted.

Made for the Labor of Hallow's Eve Contest (forums.terraria.org/index.php?… )



Winners and Runner-ups: forums.terraria.org/index.php?…
Showcase: forums.terraria.org/index.php?…
Spoiler Alert: I didn't win, wasn't runner-up, nor was I even showcased. My fault for thinking outside the box and being different, as I should have done the Pumpking, Splinterling, or Eye of Cthulhu like everyone else, but nevertheless I am proud for doing my own thing.
