Made this warthog a while back with , and she's turned out to be one of my favourites.

Raku firing means letting go of control, the smoke and flame decide the finish as much as I do. Let me know what you think of her!

The moment she starts to come together.

Putting the head back on and suddenly the whole piece feels different. She’s beginning to get her character now.

Nearly time to bring her to life.

The body is taking shape, the book is in place, and the next big step is adding the head.

Same form, bigger scale - and it’s amazing to see how much more presence it has.

She's coming together now.

The rough stages are starting to disappear and the character of the piece is really beginning to emerge. There's still plenty of work to do, but the form is finally starting to feel right.

Follow along to see where she ends up.

Say hello to Zack, a little hedgehog I made a while ago that still makes me smile.

With less space to play with, every spine had to do more work, coming across as both delicate and sharp at the same time. Holding onto that alert, on the move hedgehog attitude, caught mid-stride and slightly wary, without losing it in all that fine detail was the real test at this scale.

Turns out wax and a British heatwave do not get along.

She's gone soft as butter today, more slug than sculpture. I touch her and she just slides off in a different direction. Wrestling with it more than working with it right now.

She's starting to come together now.

Still rough, still a way to go, but the shape's finally showing through the wax. Good day in the studio, hands played nice.

Follow along as she keeps taking shape.

Fresh wax going on a new sculpture today.

This bit's slow going, layering it up before I can start finding the shape properly. Some days my hands cooperate more than others, but it's coming together.

Follow along as she takes shape over the next few weeks.
