My two latest sculptures are finishd.  The first, as some may have guessed from the "work in progress" was for Tysha and can be seen here  The second was for someone in North Carolina and can be seen here

While I had great fun doing both sculptures, and completing two commissioned sculptres simultaneously was challenging I hope it's a long while before I get two at the same time again! 

This is a "work in progress" commissioned sculpture. It stands 9-3/4 inches tall, has a wingspan of 7 inches, and is approximately 19 inches long. The eyes are made yellow faceted, acrylic rhinestones which were drilled and painted to create the pupils. The mane is made from 1-1/2 inch long poly-cotton black fringe.

What you see here on the wings right now is a cotton mesh impregnated with a plaster type substance. It's used to help provide more strength to the wing membranes to they won't be as likely to crack or split during shipment... hopefully. A thin layer of clay will go on both sides, then the other "wing finger" bones will be applied and scales laid over all of them. Once that dries I can start painting it. So I would estimate that I have another 5-7 days before it's done.
