Progress is coming along, slow and ...Hi BellaDonna,<br />Progress is coming along, slow and steady. I work on this on occasional weekends between lots of other obligations, so it's very incremental. Cloak has been mostly covered in resin, after which there are a few more pieces that will have to be covered, before I move on to the sculptable/sandable coating. <br /><br />Yes, it is a male mannequin. I thought that the facial features were androgynous enough to be workable for my statue; the face is a little feminine for a male so once coated and sculpted out I think it'll be fine. I do plan on shaping breasts for the statue, but She'll still be on the muscular side, which I also think is fine.<br /><br />Thanks for your feedback and I'll try to get some more recent photos posted soon. The reason that new photos haven't been forthcoming is that She's presently situated prone inside of a shed, because the work I'm doing on the cloak can't be done with the statue upright. So it doesn't make for really great photography. But hopefully soon I'll have that stage finished and we can get her stood up and newer photos posted.<br /><br />blessings,<br />MorpheusMorpheus Ravennahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01671537285993199353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2052359185125999548.post-59926526199378556722011-09-21T05:30:09.820-07:002011-09-21T05:30:09.820-07:00I just came upon this and was wondering how progre...I just came upon this and was wondering how progress is coming now that it is 9 months later? Also, is that a male mannekin (the frontal shot and black paint make it difficult to tell, but it appears to have masculine features)? If it is male, any plans to make the torso more feminine?<br /><br />I feel unlucky that your upcoming gathering is all the way in California, even if the gathering were free, I couldn't afford the trip from the East Coast. Your devotional sounded powerful. <br /><br />I've read some things regarding the Feri Tradition, enough to know that I do not think it for me; but I share with you a devotion to The Morrigan, though it would seems she speaks with you much more often (and easier) than she does with me (my rational brain sometimes gets in the way).<br /><br />--BellaDonna SaberhagenArcane Asylumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02945383004257644343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2052359185125999548.post-88259737041004088232011-01-23T23:34:15.018-08:002011-01-23T23:34:15.018-08:00That bit about the cost in blood was exactly what ...That bit about the cost in blood was exactly what I needed to hear today.
