6" Fairy WIP #3Posted Jun-27-08 05:23:44 PDT Updated Sep-02-08 11:47:48 PDT 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.
July 4, 2008 The head is sculpted and baked. Now working on the body.
