It’s taken a while to have inspiration, also with not having great coverage it was hard to feel motivated to do anything. But today it is back! Time to draw on my mannequin. Might wrap her up in paper first. Ohhh yes. I can do a demo on how I do that too 🙂
I used the end of a loose craft knife blade to create the lines. Used the flat end of a cuticle stick to push the clay in to rounded shape. Still need to tidy, oh so much tidying.
But I’m on my second iceblock wreath so defitely time for a saline and liquid break. I may need to counter low blood pressure normally (90 over 65 is very common for me, high is 105 over 70) so on days like today it’s a bit not wise to do too much ;).
I haven’t shared here, I have just been so tired after sculpting (it’s full body, standing, sitting, holding- something this size and floating in the air? yeah you need to use your whole body!)
The latest huge 10 update has also changed all my import settings and my phone is not happy! So I’m still waiting for my images to import before going further 🙂

After reshaping the polymorph frame using a heat gun:
 
 
October 9th:
After cutting back the polymorph with a dremel. Note the horns are so long the ends look disproportionately large from the rear view.
October 10th, more cleaning, more reshaping of the flare.
 
October 11 even more subtle shaping- mainly of the extra horn supports
 
Detailing the supports more aggressively
 
And then to show why I have been taking photos up close despite distortion, it’s more detailed 🙂 My phone does not like even lowish light. But here you can see the horn tips really are not like bunny ears!
