Right.. So I'm no great artist, I know that. But I wanted to see if I could make a head, a doll-sized head.
I had planned to make some cute face, but somehow my fingers wanted otherwise.. interetingly enough I always end up with some large, hooked nose when I'm modelling... And it's been so even before Snape, so he's not the culprit here. Must be something subconscious. Something in my genes...
But here's the first attempt. Still far from finished, I just wanted to show him :)


It's a little "dual coloured" because some of the clay is more dry than other, it's made over two days. When I'm all done with the actual modeling (which will include the back of his head, too, of course) it'll need to be sanded and painted - and wigged and have some eyes ect. And if I'm LUCKY it may even fit on top of one of the doll bodies.. let's see, if he ever gets that far. For now he's just an interesting little pasttime. And GAH! Ears.. why must they be so curly and tricky to make?!

And of course you could do something like this. I've seen you do so many other kinds of art, so why not sculpting?
