Day job has been busy and I've been sick, but progress is still progress. Even just one paw at a time! #art #sculpture #wip

Oh and I was able to stitch a small wire inside along the bottom hem to shape the wave.
Thank you!! I made a 360ยฐ circle skirt with two layers of fabric, and then sewed the right sides together as if making pillow. I left a small gap enough to turn the whole thing right side out and then sewed up the opening by hand. It didn't give her much of a collar, tho. But it worked well enough!

Small sculpture of Hornet (from Silksong) precariously balanced with her head in a cup weighted down by a measuring tape so that her legs stick straight out sideways in the air.
Super professional way of painting her toes

It's just a bit too long, so now time to undo and redo! Measure twice, cut once, friends!

Took longer than I'd like to admit to get the paint on her head to have the finish I was hoping for.

A test for arm placement for a sculpture of Hornet, with placeholders for her needle and cloak.
Hornet wielding... chopstick. And with cloak mock up made out of the first random fabric I found. Enough to figure out where her arms should be!

Precariously balancing her head on her body. I think I'll need to figure out her cloak before I work on her arms.

While waiting for resin experiments to cure, I started working on an armature for Hornet's body. Lookin' a little mummified. #wip

A few test runs of resin-cast oval eyes.
Work in progress picture of the head of the character "Hornet" from the video game Silksong, with an inset resin eye.
I wanted to try for a subtle compound eye look but, after a few tests, I like the simple one the best.

This probably won't show well in pics because I have a potato-of-a-phone, but I've repainted the whole bird.
Sometimes, I need to just finish the project even though it won't be quite what I had hoped. Other times (this time), it'll haunt me forever if I don't try for better.

Slow work of sanding, painting, sanding again, painting more, messing up (and repeat!) ... until it's prepped for painting the faux wood texture.
