Cheers Tony, give it a go, ive been sculpting for a few years, but I learn all the time with every thing.
Started on the second horse, this is the basic shape as before
A few changes to the legs , the front left leg was moved back a bit and the rear right leg was moved back slightly and then bent in a relaxed position
I then decided to turn the head slightly
As you can see all the joints were filled and then sanded
I have also been thinking about the base, l had to start it soon as some of this will have to be put together in situ, so going through my timber pile I found a nice piece of Bur Oak. This was shaped and I routered a moulding on the top and then polished it
I have also been thinking about the scenery so I had a go at a tree stump, this is made from sculpey putty which has become my new best friend, its brilliant stuff and goes hard in the oven.
Moving back to the idle git that's the driver, ive finally added his arms and started painting them
still a bit more painting to do on this and I noticed a bit of damage to his helmet so ill have to sort that
And this is Dobbins mane, tail and fur harness
always think the horses look strange without the ears
So quite a bit done and still plenty to do
Paul
