Cipollino

This is my submission for the 3-week Creature Sculpt Assignment for Think Tank Online Center. It was a lot of fun working on this piece.

Not everyone knows, Cipollino (pronounced [tʃipolˈliːno]), or Little Onion as translated from the original, is a fictional character from Gianni Rodari's eponymous Tale of Cipollino (Italian: Il romanzo di Cipollino), also known under its 1957 renamed title Adventures of Cipollino (Italian: Le avventure di Cipollino), a children's tale about political oppression. Cipollino was popular in the Soviet Union, up to the point of being adapted as a ballet composed by Karen Khachaturian and choreographed by Genrikh Mayorov, originally staged in Taras Shevchenko National Opera and Ballet Theatre of Ukraine on November 8 1974.
