Zacarías Manuel "Zack" de la Rocha is an American rapper, musician, poet, and activist of Mexican, German, and Irish descent. He is best known as the vocalist and lyricist of Rage Against the Machine and is also currently the front-man of the music duo One Day as a Lion. It is said that Rage will be getting back together, so everybody keep your fingers crossed. Zack gives hope ad meaning to the people who listen and act upon his music. He is an inspiration and was truly an honor to make this figure in his likeness.
HEAD- Prince Caspian (Hair and beard were sculpted with AVES Fix-It) I painted his entire face including his eyes which was a first for me.
TORSO and LEGS- BTVS Deluxe Spike- (Sculpted Sleeves, Collar, Buttons, shirt wrinkles, untucked shirt fins and cargo pockets.) All painted
SHOES- FO Jigsaw (Painted)
Microphone was made from a paintbrush handle and fodder. Top of mic was sculpted with AVES Fix-It sculpt.
I end with a little slice of Rage:
"We've got to regain knowledge again, and we've got to
regain an understanding again, of who we are. Not just
those chosen to fuel systems, but individuals who have the
power to criticize and analyze, and attack injustice when
it becomes prevalent and apparent in front of our faces
like it is in ours right now".
