a bit of hurt on Gunth what with stickin' dat tootpick in his face, but it just had

to be doned-- part of the nose job he gonna get :D

GuntharforFotki006-vi.jpg

Here be the 'Celluclay' with water added....

GuntharforFotki013-vi.jpg

... and here be ol' Gunthar gettin' skinned with it :huh:

GuntharforFotki016-vi.jpg

As usual, since me & Gunth'res both kinda sicklys, we gotta go back into the heaty booth

fer a spell again.

GuntharforFotki017-vi.jpg

After a goodly spell in the heaty booth, I gived Gunth a good sanding coz he weres

just a li'l too uglys fer me with all them lumps & bumps :lol:

GuntharforFotki026-vi.jpg

Slicked 'im up with a new hat and he be smilin'-- but methinks dat ol' tophat

gonna need a chop & section job, it's just too big-- makes the clown look almost

kinda diginifried <_< Next up'll be puttin' his ears in place-- mebbe then we can talk ;)

Posted (edited)

I'm constantly amazed by the weird internal self-discipline that allows us to translate what's inside our mind's eye into concrete reality. Dang if all this seemingly random thrashing about hacking at bits of wood and lumps of paper mache isn't resulting in something that looks remarkably like the original drawing! ;) Yer right, that old top hat needs a little crumpling and scrunching and then it'll look just fine...
