Afternoon all, My entry for the GB will be a clay sculpt of a 1805 Royal Marine from the Battle of Trafalgar. This is a very new medium for me so it should provide me with some challenges and a steep learning curve as well as some entertainment for the rest of you. Here are the raw materials, gathered reference and tools. A start had been made prior to joining the GB with the scratching of the musket, I have subsequently put the armature together and had a go at the head but I will most likely have another bash at that. The pose is supposed to suggest that of someone looking up scanning the fighting tops for the French marksman that has just felled Admiral Lord Nelson. All kinds of reference, basically anything with illustrations of bone structure, musculature .......oh! and how to actually do it! "When I grow up I want to be a Royal Marine!" ...."or a Pirate!" This was my practice attempt Long John and Captain Flint....still a WIP. I don't like the way that parrot is looking at me! The armature is made so that the arms are removable, which will enable me to detail the torso more easily and hopefully if things go according to plan mould and cast separately Oh well in for a penny... Cheers, Mark.
