Preserved Hand

Daniel Martin brings us this bog-style preserved hand.  It's a great recreation of the naturally tanned body parts pulled out of European peat swamps.  The closeup shots give you a feel for the incredibly detailed skin texture.

Wow! That is stunning work.

I believe this is a hollow cast of a real hand. Alginate will pick up on those fine textures and latex or similar cast material will reproduce it nicely.
