Kaede Maquette

Had some left over Super Sculpey, so I decided to make another maquette, this one of Kaede. I didn't know how to deal with the eyes, so they look a little wonky, but they look a lot better now that they're painted. It looked rather creepy when it wasn't painted, hahah. Anyway, yup, just another small one for fun : )

Slim Maquette Painted

Painted Slim up last night and I must say, he is looking really good : ) I even included the smileys on his boxers, haha

Slim Maquette

I made a maquette!

As a post-graduation project, I decided to make one (by the way, I graduated from college the other day, haha), because I never got around to taking the maquette making class at my school. This is only like my third maquette-y thing made. Before, I've made a human skeleton/muscle sculpture for my anatomy class and like.... 6 years ago, I tried to make a figure of the G-Man from Half-Life 2.

Anywho, considering, this one turned out pretty good, I must say! It's Slim the Zombie and I tried to include as many of the cuts and rips in his clothing as I could, though I regrettably missed the giant chunk that's supposed to be missing from his vest. Oh well.

There are few things that bug me - like the noticeable crack in his neck - but I can live with it, cause I would like to get him painted and I don't think sticking the thing back in the oven will fix the crack if I fill it in. In fact, it was much smaller and I had tried that and it... kinda of made it worse.

But whatever!

I'm really happy with it : ) I'll try and get better pictures in a room that is not my bathroom when he's painted later~
