David- The head

One of the most challenging sculpting I have done in this course. This project took me a long time to perfect and make it look like my reference picture. First, I worked on the facial structure, especially the shape of the face, eyes, and ears alignment to the face so that it looks normal and not lob-sided. The nose and lips were difficult as I could not figure out how to make them sharpen them unrealistic. I had fun learning and making mistakes as this helped me see what I needed to do to make the sculpture come alive. The most difficult was the hair. I could not figure out what to do until I found the swirling brush. This made it a lot easier to make the hair pop out more.
