Sculpture attempt #2
[?/?/12]





Inspired somewhat by Twoface? I dunno. I wanted scars. Lots of scars. Next time I'll try keloided scars instead though. I'll also try a more narrow face, something more delicate...There are so many things I want to try- concave bridges, roman bridges, sunken eyes, round cheeks, boney structure and squishy...

\o/ yep. So much to sculpt.

I really like it. The details

I really like it. The details in the muscles of the face, and the scars...You have such a distinct style and it comes out as clearly in your clay work as it does in your drawing ^^

I saw one of the other ones

I saw one of the other ones on your DA not that long ago. I really like this one too; I love the scarring on him.

Bwah thank you guys. And shi, that means a lot to me. >< I try to be distinct, but I'm never quite sure if I pull it off, hm.

TOTALLY tracking the heck out

TOTALLY tracking the heck out of this haha, that title. xD

You mentioning keloided scars and a roman nose, those I can't wait to see; two of my favorite features.
What have you been using for carving tools? If you can get your hands on them, you should give dental tools a try.

I love the look of both of these, especially the little details in the side of the seconds face and the skulls eye sockets. :3

Uuh, this is so awesome. I

Uuh, this is so awesome. I can't sculpt to save my life but I admire the people who actually can. Both look amazing! Specially loving the scar following down the muzzle in the second one.

Can't wait to see more here. @_@

Yay! I was hoping to see

Yay! I was hoping to see more! I'm in love with the muscle structure around the eyes, the scars are really well done too. And yes, your style is rather recogniseable even in clay!

Tera- xD Why thank you~ \o\

Tera-
xD Why thank you~
\o\ Man, since there's interest in those feathers, I'll give those a try first. I seriously couldn't decide where to start.

As for tools, I've been usinggg... let's see, an exacto knife, occasionally a broken pocket knife, a tack, and a little paintbrush with some alcohol for smoothing, and the stick of the paintbrush itself. v_v I have some wood carving tools somewhere I'd like to dig out and use for this, but...dental equipment would work really nicely as well. o_o I wonder if I can find some cheap stuff on ebay.


Baal-
;D Thanks~ I by far favor the socket side as well.

Wow, the alcohol trick is a

Wow, the alcohol trick is a great one! Never thought to use that on clay (I've used similar stuff on carving wax). 8|

Damnit Lu stop inspiring me when I have other non-arts to do!
