So.. apparantly, I'm taking my sweet time on this thing. I wasn't going to post my latest progress pics because I would have liked him to be "finished" the next time I showed him off... but it looks like this week is going to be just as busy as last in terms of having to make stuff. I have to build my costume for Halloween/wedding business and do a drawing for this competition I'm entering, so it looks like I'm not going to finish Peet here until after all that.
Currently, he's more complete than this.. These pics are over a week old--his fingers are carved down into more anatomically accurate ones. And he has a bottom jaw again. (I had to remove it so I could attach the head to his neck.) If you remember my first posting of this, you'll see I decapitated him and scrapped the first body. I never really liked the first one because it felt so "stagnant". This one has a bit more movement to it.
This next pic (above) is another reason I photograph him often. In this case, his right hand kept bugging me, so putting it into photoshop made it possible for me to draw over top and find out a better way of doing it. I've adjusted the sculpture since then. Of course, soon afterward I dropped it and had to do it again, but that's what I get for carrying it around the house.
For the curious, I should mention this thing is only like.. 3 inches tall. Most of the time I have to put it down after a short while because the details are melting under my fingers.
