Sculpting!

Tue Feb 9, 2010, 10:29 AM
So... I have discovered the magic that is Super Sculpey :'D I haven't sculpted ANYTHING with this stuff ever before in my life. Indeed, I haven't sculpted anything, no matter the material, since my high school ceramics class (how I loved that class though <3)

So Friday night I did my first sculpture with Sculpey. It's a full body of Duckula :'D To everyone out there who thinks I hate him, I say neener neener xD However... he did have a bit of an unfortunate accident coming out of the oven >>; His poor little head fell off and right onto the tile floor D: No worries though! His hair snapped off but it's easily glued back on (as is his head, luckily) But yeah, I'm pretty pleased with myself :) Actually, the thing that pleases me the most is that I was using Janet's ANCIENT Sculpey, like seriously, molding that stuff was hard as a ROCK. And I didn't use any tools xD It was HARDCORE YEAH XD

Well, the next day she was very kindly to me and bought us some new Sculpey, plus a set of plastic tools. Oh how they improved my next two sculptures! The second one, of course, was Igor :'D He is the light of my little sculpting life <3 I didn't do a full body of him, only a bust, but I am pretty dang pleased with it. His hair.... oh dear lord his hair is hard enough to draw, let alone freaking figure out how to create xD But I did it! And it has earned the Juno seal of approval :'D He and Duckula still need to be painted yet, and I'm hoping to get some pictures of them before I do (hopefully this evening!) And then some after shots when they're totally done :)

My third, and probably most labor intensive one to date is of Janet's Veneficus. Like Igor, he is a bust, but he's certainly much more detailed than a simplified cartoon character. Again, I'm pleased with how he turned out (though his hair... sculpting hair is a total bitch D: ) I totally could not have made him without those awesome little tools of mine, I'm lucky Janet grabbed them <3

So yeah :'D That was pretty much my awesome weekend. Not to mention having some freaking fantastic food AND getting to drink a bit <3

Now... Off to art! :'D
