A few months ago, Nickelodeon offered a sculpture class taught by the amazing
Dave Pressler. We built armatures, sculpted our characters in Sculpey, and then made a mold and cast of them.
I decided to sculpt this lovely lady that I made for a Nickelodeon gallery a while back.
Buuuut...It didn't start out so great....
But that's ok! It got better!
Here is is ready to go in the oven with a handsome gentleman.
Post baking, Laura does her best sad monster impression.
Finished and baked, with arms and hair bow
This is the mold before I poured the silicone!
Clay sculpture next to it's resin clone
Then I started painting her! Painting was my favorite part.
Painted a glossed. But still no one will dance with her!
