Wicked sculpt(s)! Lovin' them! I really like Slythe in that he has sort of cartoony proportions, BUT there is a reality about the way you have treated the forms. Brilliant!
Gotta chime in on the Casteline/Willow Products Wax conversation.
I was a long time Castelineer, and produced quite a few objects with it. I got tired of it after the formula changed, but I parted with it with great saddness in my heart; I loved the fact that you could build with it like clay, but surface it like wax. Wonderful!
I ordered a few pounds of Zen wax from Willow Products (I forget where Zen is on the food chain of Gary's waxes, but it is definitely in the warm-it-up-a-bit-and-build-like-clay-but-cool-it-down-and-sand-and-detail-to-your-heart's-content catagory), and have begun work on an 18" Navajo figure.
All I can say is Zen has become my new best friend. Period.
Anyway, once again, will watch this figure with great interest!
