Maggie Smith Sculpture

I did this for sculpture class on a whim.  I had to sculpt something, and having just started watching Downton Abbey I thought it would be fun to try and capture Maggie's likeness.  Also, she is one of my favorite actresses of all time.

I had hoped to get a more caricatured result than this.  It was fun nonetheless.  The whole thing is about 9 inches tall or so.

This guy will be used to make a mold and then cast in latex an painted. I can't wait. I haven't cast any of my sculptures yet. Should be fun trying to paint some realistic skin effects.

I will make one more detail pass on this guy, to add some more skin imperfections, wrinkles, and a few warts.  

Man of steel in clay

Another sculpting assignment. Had to sculpt from my imagination. I've been reading the original superman comics so I guess that was stuck in my head.

(testing out the new blogger app. Hope this works.)
