wow! fantastic stuff. i really love the first one of the second post, and the one of the studies of portions of your face. really well done

also, super sculpey looks fantastic! i've been wanting to try it out, but have no clue how to go about using it. do you have any reference pages or books you could reccomend?

[jhibbs]

zippzopp, thanx for the comments. about sculpey, thats my first time ever using it also, so i dont really have any tips other than do all the detailing before baking, they say you can work it afterwords but you really cant it chips and scrapes and makes a mess. also, start general (like massesd of the head and neck in my case) before ANY details. as for tools, i used a toothpick and a really small flathead screwdriver. as i said, im definitely no expert, thats just what i learned in my experience. any sculpey users feel free to add to (or correct :p ) this.

[ZippZopp]

thanks jhibbs, i appreciate the little tips. i would really love to hear from some sculpey users out there. i'm currently tryin to find a job, and the job market sucks right now, so i might have some time on my hands, i'd love to have a go at sculpture.
