Pretty much just wanted to do something creepy and the clown came to mind from the poltergeist movie. Then I thought about how that entity was being controlled by a greater evil force, in essence making the clown/jester a marionette.

| | Problems and Solutions
Making heads: P- Just getting them to look good, I went through about 7 or 8 heads before I got one I liked. S- Found a different method of constructing the model UV maps: P- Getting the textures to line up right, or even look somewhat real. P- Getting the UV maps to unfold correctly S- Discovered a better way to unwrap the UV maps. Object projection/orientations is very important Eye Lashes: P- How to even get eye lashes on my model. S- I figured out how to use a UV map as a transparency.
