Ava Sculpt...Update 3/29

More updates on Ava. With the temporary hair she looks more like Lucille Ball or Wilma Flintstone, but it's their temporarily to show the hairline and some volumes only.

Thanks for looking. Still some work needed on the mouth and other areas. Comments certainly welcomed!

More Ava Pics for, uh, why not!

Side Project- Female Sculpt

Hello, everyone. Thanks for visiting my blog. As a change of pace from my ongoing Hussar project, I decided to start a new challenge in sculpting a female face. One would be hard pressed to find a more beautiful face for reference than classic film star Ava Gardner. Feedback and opinions on this one greatly welcomed as this is my first real shot at a female face. The scale is 200mm. This head is approximately 3/4 inch high!

Update 3/25/08 - Hussar

More work on the Hussar.........

Update 3/21/08

Here are a few shots of the Hussar bust with the cording and lace work going on. I experimented with a couple of different types of wire and string, but couldn't find what I liked for the larger cord sections on the chest. I'm making these from magic sculpt and will fill in between them with some small braided jeweler's wire I found. I may need to update my glasses perscription after this one's done! Thanks for looking.

Update 3/16/08

Here some more work has happened on the facial hair and detail going onto the collar lace.
