Updated angel pics

Tuesday, January 30th, 2007

Making progress slowly but surely. The face is starting to come along now but it looks like I need to bulk up the angel’s right arm a little to match the left. I still need to finish the left forearm, back of the left bicep and the angels back. And of course I […]

Forearm

Friday, January 26th, 2007

Unfortunately I haven’t had as much time as I would like to work on my sculpture this week but it is still coming along.
I did get a chance to work a little on angels left forearm, back and face which you can see some of the changes in the attached photo. For the […]

Finishing the torso

Saturday, January 20th, 2007

The front portion of the torso is now coming closer to completion. I still have to work more on the abdomen but I am close to finishing it now. The forearms will be next and I am constantly working on the face.
I will save the hands for last since they are my least favorite things […]

Baking in Stages

Saturday, January 20th, 2007

I decided to bake the angels right arm and chest with my heat gun to eliminate the chance that I would mess up the detail work while working on the rest of the sculpture. You can view the tutorial on how I did this at my Polymer Clay Fan site. A picture of […]

Adding detail

Saturday, January 20th, 2007

I’m starting to fine tune the sculpture now and this picture shows how the arms, face and torso are starting to take shape. This is the most time consuming stage for sculpting, at least for me, and really takes a lot of concentration.
At this stage in the game, my plans still are to finish sculpting […]

Angel’s Torso

Thursday, January 18th, 2007

Starting to block out the torso now and I have sculpted a rough face to start getting an idea of the expression I want. At this stage I’m just playing around with a few ideas and will most likely completely redesign the face and hair through the sculpting process.
Originally I was going to sculpt the […]

Sculpting Arms

Wednesday, January 17th, 2007

To start off my sculpture I have put together a rough sketch for my angel’s arms. I have sculptured arms several different ways in the past, attached to the armature and not attached, and I really prefer sculpting them separate from the core sculpture. The reason why I have chosen to sculpt the arms as […]

New Sculpture

Friday, January 12th, 2007

Not sure if you can tell what I have going on in the image below but this is an idea that I am thinking about doing for a new sculpture. Keep in mind that this is a very quick sketch and I’m trying to get a feel for how I would like to put […]

The Hard Way

Friday, January 5th, 2007

I haven’t worked on this project for over a year now (really not sure why) and I’m having to learn a lesson the hard way. I’m pretty close to completing this project but if you look at the wings you can see that the one to the left of the screen is not finished.
The problem […]

Dragonslayer

Friday, January 5th, 2007

If I had to pick one piece of artwork that gave me the passion for sculpting warrior angels then I would have to give most of the credit to my Armageddon: Call to War sculpture. However, my Dragonslayer sculpture (image to the left) is the one that inspired me to sculpt a muscular angel […]
