MadDog Mike's Platterful of Pupule - El Tiki/Ben Wilson Wall Finished - Other Crafts

It's sketching that boggles my little mind- I see things in 3D and when I try to convert them to 2D my brain melts down and gives me stick figures. I've been trying a modified closed object technique where you make an air-filled "clay balloon" and then form it to the desired shape but it's not working too well for a skull. I may have to try Babalu's method of sculpting it solid then hollowing it out. Edit - PS I like the "O moye kite", I may have to put it in my signature line when I get tired of the electric fence. There are those few who learn from observation. The rest of us need to piss on the electric fence and find out for ourselves. [ Edited by: MadDogMike 2008-09-24 07:53 ]
