About last week or so, my good friend Alicia and I got together at my house and had a maquette making party, and of course, happily began working on our maquettes. Pictured here is a maquette of my character Vritra from my WIP graphic novel currently entitled The Guardians Trilogy. I wanted to do something a little different from the standard boring base and made an environment piece to correspond with my character. It's been turning out surprisingly well since it's my first time doing so.
Start of his wire skeleton:
Foiling up:
Laying down the sculpy (starting with the rock and then the rest of the character):
Finally got to wiring the feet (which took about a couple of days to do):
Finished all four. Onto putting sculpy on them.
The face will be next. Just slowly working my way through the other details.
