It was only a matter of time before I ended up making a cyclops.
This was definitely one of the more challenging sculptures I've ever made. Ihad to remake the bottom half entirely at least twice as I let it dry, because the legs kept collapsing, or folding in on themselves the wrong direction.
Also, I tell a lie: a small portion of the yellow clay was actually salvageable. Not enough to make anything substantial, but good enough to make an eye for Mr Cyclops here, and for another project that's currently drying as I dictate this.
I definitely feel like there's room for improvement. The hands, in particular, didn't turn out so great.
Beyond that, though, I think it turned out okay, complications not withstanding.
