Hello World!

Well I completed the sculpted head as far as I am going to complete him. It's supposed to be a girl but sure looks like a boy. It reminds me of that song from the 60s "Are you a girl?...or are you a boy? The first thing I saw when I got up this morning was this, waiting for me, looking very sad.

So I started in on him. I'm calling him a him from now on. I needed to complete his mouth.

So I worked on the mouth as much as I am going to, and started in on the eyes. I built up an eye bone (I don't know the name of this bone) to make a socket sort of.

I'm satisfied with the eye areas and really, nearing the end of the sculpting of him.

He needs a neck proper and the general shaping of shoulders.

So he is completed. Remember that hideous lump with feather and dirt/dust embedded plasticine? Well I've taken what I need to make my little man head. The rest will be reclaimed to be used to make a dam for when I pour a mold of the fella. That will be next post.

Thanks for dropping in, we'll see you soon I hope. *smiles* Norma

Sculpted face continues...

So it's back to sculpting and I'd originally planned to sculpt a face to make a mask really, to just sew on to a prim doll but once I got going I decided to make a full head with neck and shoulder area just like the old fashioned porcelein doll heads one sees in magazines. Here's the face as I left it two days ago.

I started to add the neck and as a result have squished the mouth completely.

Here I've widened the shoulders and have added bulk to the head.

Now I'm starting to rework the mouth.

Just continuing on the mouth and starting to pay attention to the eyes.

So I worked on this for only an hour or so this morning and left it at that. Tomorrow is another day! Thanks for dropping in and we'll see you soon I hope! *smiles* Norma
