When I was in grade eleven, we were meant to do clay busts of one of the members of our family. I toiled for a week and a half over a lump of clay, carefully forming the cheerful visage of my younger brother. When I finally finished, I took a step back to admire the fruits of my labour.

And then I noticed that what I had done resembled a grinning potato more than it did my brother.

YOUR work, on the other hand, is (as usual) fantastic! I can appreciate the finer details - especially the delicate hair and hands. I assume you plan on painting this once it's finished? I can't wait to see the final product. Please post more pictures as it progresses! :)

Wow-- that's a huge sculpture! From the earlier photographs I thought it was smaller, maybe 18 inches or so high. You must have put a lot of time, effort, and patience into this project so far.

The her pose and the way her head is held high give the scuplture a regal feel. Nice job with muscular definition, too.

Is the bust hollow? I'm guessing it is from the armholes-- speaking of which, have you made her arms, or are they forthcoming?

Great work, and good luck with finishing it up!
:iconfaizah:
Aye, the whole thing from head to bust is hollow - it must be. If you make anything thicker than an inch with clay, it blows up in the kiln. :<

This is why clay offers such challenge in terms of construction - it has to be within a certain thickness, but still strong enough to support itself.
