Third time's the charm? Unfortunately, no. It's so close but no cigar. One side is perfect. The other side, not so nice...Gaaaaah!!! So I'm going to resculpt her again in another few days or weeks, whichever takes my fancy, no matter how many times it takes.





But it's a step forward from what the second sculpt was.

This is T-Pau from Star Trek. Wonder which episode she starred in? I think she is just a beautiful creature.

I'm ready to bake her. I took some artistic liberties with the back of her head, since I sculpted from memory, but I like her a lot. I know she will look spectacular when painted!! I'll have to figure out how to build up her neck after she's done baking. I don't want to mess her up now. I thought I could sculpt in her braids, but I failed miserably...so I ended up rolling out worms of clay and braiding that. A clay extruder would have been cool, but I didn't have any. :(

Finished version looks slightly different...took one quick peak on YouTube and decided to simplify the sides of her hair-do--got rid of the band, etc.

Beautiful.
If you ever sell some casts, count me in...

You're way too hard on yourself.
Sheer talent.

So here I am again practicing. I still have to fluff up his hair and figure out how the back looks. It's been quite a long time since I have viewed TOS...wondering which episode he shows up in so that I could at least YouTube it...and study the back of his head.



This is the goal of this exercise: Kahless
