Hello blog!

A lot have happened and I haven’t posted on the blog at all. But now I will!

The first thing that happened after the last post was that I went to a construction warehouse an bought lots and lots of wall putty and covered the whole dolphin.

I thought that you possibly could smear on the putty with the hands and create a smooth surface like in clay. But the putty had a strange consistency and became pretty messy.

But it was really simple to grind with sandpaper, I forgot to document my grinding in action but here are pictures of the smooth dolphin. I carved out two holes where I later made eyes out of clay. Jens came by and took some cool pictures.

On some of the pictures you can tell that the tail fell off at one point, so I reattached it and put another broomstick inside it as a spine.

Details around the mouth and the eyes were made out of clay;

… And the whole model was painted light grey so I could see where the flaws where.

Fredrik took some cool pictures of the finished sculpture!
