<p>[QUOTE=&quot;reader, post: 4341255, member: 255&quot;]Haven’t heard back but did want to clarify that when a figure does wear a flayed skin it is not just on the face. I can’t believe this replica has so strongly motivated me LOL but know I really want to know what it is.</p><p><br /></p><p>Xipe Totec is represented wearing <b>flayed human skin</b>, usually with the flayed skin of the hands falling loose from his wrists so not just on his face.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I completely agree that it’s a contemporary pastiche but i think the feathering is a definite historic reference and i hope to get a answer from someone I respect as expert in this specific area (not that anyone else should accept this) as to whether the patterning represents leaves, feathers, skin or something else as I do believe it’s specific.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
