OFF WITH HIS HEAD!!!

The last hammerhead I made was all done then I noticed something was wrong. I got the measuring tape out and realized that I had made a math error while scaling. I’ll finish this, get some armature going for the sea turtle, then back to the screaming T-Rex. I really have to finish that up.

Too hot for the shop today. Had some productive time learning a new subject. My pencil work leaves much to be desired but it really helps me get to know the animal better. I think it may be time. First sculpture is sometimes a bit rough but I’ll do my best.
