[Update 11-18!] Pimienta Sculpt BIG TIME revision!

Jun 5, 2006

    1. 11/19/06

      Okay, i decided the old head i was using was WAY too disproportionate to use, so i sculpted another one ( and one that was more realistic proportion wise) so i have combined this project with part of my senior thesis.... lol... yeah i really wanted to do this for school, so she's supposed to be one of the 3 characters that i've been doing artwork about...she has a strange backstory...but ANYWAY ! here are some pics of how far i've gotten.

      this photo with flash so you can see the painting i'm doing on her body:

      and this is one of my paintings of the character she's supposed to look like:

      oh and i know youre probably like, 'she has no eyes!!' but i havent decided whether or not i should drill eyewells... i kind of like her with painted on eyes.... but eyeballs might give her another dimention!! i dunno!! i'll have to think about all this!

      Well i started it a few weeks ago...but i was using a tutorial this time, and paper clay... and WOW is it so much easier to do than with sculpey! i really like how shes coming out so far! anyone have any ideas what i should change ? (i havent gotten to her legs yet :( theyre still styrafome , and the feet and hands too... ) I really want to cast her for an exhibit idea i wanted to do..

    2. hey Inulg - very cool - I like her head alot - have you tried eyes in yet? its amazing how they come alive when you do.... hope you will post new pics soon.... congratulations!
       
    3. wow! so its been a while, and i'm actually finishing up this sculpt for part of my thesis... ahh!! i need to hurry!! i'm still not sure whether or not i should seperate the torso into 2 peices....and add posability... idunno... i'll try to post pictures soon...
       
    4. Wow! You're much further along than me... good job! :D
       
    5. Thanks! Its just i started it over the summer... i should have been done at least 2 months ago :(
       
    6. Here are some more progress updates! I'm hoping i'll have her strung together by tomorrow... *sigh* i ran out of paperclay and am going to use stone clay instead... :( the colors will look funny of course, but i'm going to mold her and noone will notice!! ;)

      oh yeah, and that faceup is TEMPORARY!! its just me messing around with what i think i want her to look like!! (and it smudged on the clay ! :'( ) she still needs a ton of sanding as well! :)
       
    7. starting to cast the peices!! ohh :( i should have taken a picture of her strung together...*sigh* i'm thinking of re-sculpting the head to something more proportional and less anime looking huge..
