Awesome Blog!

I am posting this just because. I really love this dude's work. It is so incredible and I'm sure takes a lot of patience.

Legs are pretty much done

Finished up the legs... I laughed for so long because the top (where the go into the pelvis socket) looks like boots.. d: Need finish the arms, feet and hands then I'm ready to paper mâché! 

Arms and legs are looking good!

I attached the arms and will continue making them more realistic. I also made the legs more realistic, especially adding more paper around where the two bones would be connected.

Skeleton arms

I made the arms looks more realistic and I will do the same with the legs tomorrow.

Almost done with framework

These will eventually be the arms. Like the legs, I will make the joints look real as well with paper mâché... 

These are the shoulder blades. 

These pieces will go on the bottom of the spine to make a pelvis. Took me forever to get the shape right but I think it turned out pretty good.

Commenting

I commented on Alexssa's and Salma's blogs.

Connected the legs.

 This looks kind of stupid now, but I'm going to make where the two parts were connected look like a real joint. I really want to make this skeleton look as realistic as I can.

Made the legs for my skeleton

I started making legs for my skeleton. I also put the shoulders on it, but I forgot to take a picture. Hopefully I can get the arms, hands, feet, and pelvis on the skeleton so I can start paper mâchéing asap.

Progress from Wednesday and Thursday. (Sorry they're not separate)

This ribcage was my first one, and from Tuesday. I didn't really like it, so I redid it (which took fooooreverrrr). My new ribcage is up there, and I taped my skull to the spine. I'll probably need to hot glue it so that it will stay, since it's heavy. I need to make the arms, legs and pelvis, then I'll start paper mâchéing.

Quick Assignment 11/6/13

For this quick assignment, we had to pick one out of 40 sculptures to write about. I really like number 13. Charles La Trobe Statue in Melbourne, Australia. The artist is Charles Robb. I like this statue because it's comical, but it means so much to me. I would say that it means that we (as a human race) should see the world in different perspectives. I would love to see this in person, because all art is just more amazing somehow in person. This statue was just temporary installation and had been moved to LaTobe University in June 2006.

Progress on skull- from Monday AND today

 This first picture is how I did on Monday. I just did another layer of paper mâché. Looking pretty good to me so far. 

 
These three pictures are of my progress today. I am adding onto the back of my skull to make it more realistic. I am also going to make the eyes more realistic, by shaping the sockets, and then cut the hole where the nose is, and hopefully make the teeth as well. I made the spine and the shoulders out of cardboard and masking tape. After I get the ribs and pelvis (maybe the legs too) I will paper mâché each section, connect them ll together, then paper mâché again. Then go on to do the painting and accessories onto my skeleton.

Progress on skull..

I added another layer of paper mâché to my skull. I forgot to get a picture. But as soon as I get to school tomorrow, I will take a picture before I continue with more progress.

Posts for this week-

I forgot to post pictures Monday and we had a half day Friday, so I didn't go to this class.
