A good start to the statue project
So I decided to get cracking on my classical bust idea that I mentioned in the post before last… It’s not bad, but I’m still tinkering with it so it has a ways to go still.
I’m working on the muscles of the back right now.. I’ll post more pics as it progresses…
I think my next piece might be a portrait of some sort… I have a mental image of an older man with a long beard.
UPDATE!
I’ve done more work on this over the last couple of days… I am thinking that I’m going to add a head too.
I think the head will look kind of like the one on this statue.. “Menelaus supporting the body of Patroclus”.
This sculpture is one of my favourites and is located near the Palazzo Vechio in Florence.
Here’s a little about it.
