2 faces done

I've got the next 2 faces finished and ready for their bodies to be sculpted. The faces are very challenging to get to look like a real baby. I think those that are on the list will be my last ones to get a portrait sculpture. They are extremely difficult. I will still take customized orders to have similar features (eye color & hair color) but will not be able to make relicas any longer. It really restricts the creative process!! I've noticed many fellow sculptors say the same thing. Which that could be one reason it is rare to find a portrait sculptor! I have enjoyed sculpting these last 2 fairy sculpts very much! They helped get my creative juices flowing again! I was amazed that I had to squish 6 heads and I just gave up. Then I created the mini pregnant fairy & BAM! I was able to sculpt the 2 heads in one day!! YEA!

Photobucket

I was able to take only a few pictures of my progress before my battery died. So I will try tomorrow to get them uploaded for the blog.

Here's a link to a great article about the chaos going on at eBay.

My auctions are posted in the previous post.

See ya tomorrow!

newest sculpt on OLA




The link to the listing:OOAK Butterfly Baby Boy, Kheelyn
I had this vision that wouldn't leave me alone! I had to get the sculpture completed so I could continue with my comission work... I used my homemade eyes & tried a new technique for the wings..... I definately have to work on improving my technique more or get a different glue!!! ugh! I don't like the feel of superglue on my fingers for days after!! LOL! So far this little guy is my favorite! It will be difficult to let him go... but I'm sure his new mommy will love him as much as I do!

announcement...

Due to some recent changes on eBay and an expected 'strike' from my fellow artists, I decided to make the switch to www.onlineauction.com before everyone else. I have stopped posting on eBay for quite a few months now and finally found a comparable place to list my work and items. I'm expecting to see a mass exodus withing the next couple of weeks, as many are already trickling over.... I wanted to let everyone here know that I have some items listed there: Madebytrudi

I am diligently working... while I'm waiting for approval for the current commission finalizations, I am working on those who do not want a portrait sculpture in the meantime. Today I will be working on wings... butterfly, cicada, fairy & angel wings. I will try to post pictures....
