Not that anybody here really cares but for the sake of bumping my previous blog down, I'll mention this anyways. I've had a few sculpting projects in the works for quite a long time (mostly the two big ones) and they've spent way too long just sitting there, incomplete. Tomorrow, I have an appointment with the orthodontist and after that, it's down to business. I am making a point to have "A Proper Execution Executed Improperly" fully assembled tomorrow. No exceptions. All I'll have left is painting and glazing.
The semi-submerged in water theme for my Pikmin setting has been hindering any attempt I make towards progression. I've had a number of ideas, (some, quite inventive, I think) but none of them are satisfying to me. Now that I have access to somebody who might be able to help me (suggestions and materials), I'm going to see what my sculpting teacher has to say. I usually don't like advice that people give me when I have sculpting issues but hopefully she can be the exception.
I just glazed the Bob-omb Buddy earrings (hopefully) for the last time. If that goes well, they will be officially complete. Yay.
Next up is Toad (another one that Krista asked me for). I've got a finished body (aside from glazing) and a spotless, eyeless head. I'm scared to do the spots and eyes because both of those things need to be quite "perfect" and screwing them up would really suck. After (or maybe before would be better?) the painting, I need to drill a hole in toad's head and neck to put a wooden "bone" inside and glue it together. Experience tells me that this method of attaching things is ineffective and destined for breakage... but my stubbornness gene tells me I'll do it anyways and hope for better results this time.
After all of that, I can finally continue my work on Kurtass' long awaited Spyro sculpture. I had hoped to have it finished before the new game's release (which I think is in three weeks) but if you consider my sculpting work-load plus my homework plus my tendency to neglect the latter and postpone the former, I should have Spyro finished and ready for pictures in the mid-2050's.
