Fairy Doll Sculpting

6" Fairy WIP #3

June 27, 2008

I usually sculpt 4" fairy dolls so this 6" one is a big change for me. It might not sound like a big difference but I should be able to get much more detail into this size of sculpture.

Photo: 19 gauge wire armature with polymer clay 'bones' to help bulk it up so the sculpted area is not too thick and bakes properly. I might need to bulk up the torso a bit more.

 

I have also been adjusting and experimenting with child proportions.  Here is a picture of my child doll template I created for this sculpture.  As I said, I'm still experimenting so this template may change for future dolls.

The head is sculpted and baked. Now working on the body.

I'm scraping this fairy sculpture. Too many things are going wrong - moonies and clay trouble!
