Sculptalong 6 – Face Facts.
Hey, welcome to the next post in the Sculptalong saga. I hope that the week off lasy week was handy, I certainly enjoyed it, sculpting a 54mm miniature that a prominent company have shown interest in already. Marvellous 
Anyway, this week we get to work on the face. Aaargh! Nah, it’s not like that, don’t panic, faces are tricky, but you’ve had some practice with the putty now, and its sometimes moving how you want it, so that’s good. As with everything we’ve done so far, faces stick to the same principles – economy of movement, being happy with each layer before you move on, and knowing when to stop. I know that this is a different format, but its taking me less time to write it this way, and hopefully it is nicer to work with too. If you don’t like it, then next week I’ll go back to the previous format. When I first decided to try faces, I spent a good few hours tearing my hair out trying to make it look just right. it took several attempts before I felt able to get the right features in the right place. Give it a shot, expect to need to give several attempts, and most of all, treat it as a challenge, and enjoy the process – not many people can do this, simply because they haven’t tried yet!
