I sculpted this alien head using clay! I’d love some suggestions for details to enhance it or ideas on how to paint it. What do you think?

That sounds like a fun project! For details, you could consider adding textured patterns to the skin, like ridges or scales, to give it a more alien look. You might also want to sculpt some interesting features, like large, expressive eyes or unusual antennae.
For painting, a gradient effect could work well—starting with a dark color at the base and going lighter towards the top for a sense of depth. Metallic or pearlescent paints could give it an otherworldly sheen. Just make sure to highlight the details you’ve added by using darker shades in the creases and lightening the raised areas. Good luck, and I can’t wait to see how it turns out!
