playing again

well, i'm kinda stuck with that first sculpey guy. i can't really imagine how i want his body to look so he's just going to sit around until something comes to me.

so i started another. with this one, i actually have a vision of what i want him to look like when finished. well, mostly. i think i need to adopt the idea of painting the eyes before putting them in the head and adding the lids. or maybe i just need to forgo caffine the day i paint them?

playing

inspired by penultimate pea's great sculpted figures, i decided to try my hand at working with sculpey.

i've got a head so far and a few ideas for other things but i'm not really sure how to go about adding the body & appendages. do i try to sew clothes for him or sculpt them? (i don't know how to sew so that might be an issue)

also, i'm having trouble painting. the colors are okay until they dry then they look weird. i'm just using craft paint so that might be an issue. another problem with the paint is how different it looks in different light. oh well, chalk it all up to experience.

this is the head from the other night. it was kinda dark so the picture came out crappy. i still need to work on his eyes but i think i need to concentrate more on the rest of him for a while.

and we wonder why we're fat

fast food comparison.

i'm never eating again.
