Put the other side of the tunnel on

I've attached the other tunnel piece to the opposite side of the box. I also started putting my lid together, but I forgot to take a picture of that.

Starting a new project

Sketching out my designs...

Interesting blog

this blog is awesome because you can see a bunch of people's sculptures. Some of them are really weird, but they're awesome! c:

Getting close to being finished

So I am about finished paper mâchéing, except for the hands and feet, and I started gessoing the legs since they were dry. I'm really hoping that tomorrow I'll be finished because this was supposed to be done yesterday. 

Progress from today and yesterday

The top two pictures (I think) are from yesterday. I finished paper mâchéing the top of the skeleton. Today I turned it over and started on the back. I used a couple of containers to hold up the pelvis and spine so it wouldn't collapse on itself. Hopefully tomorrow I can finish paper mâchéing and blow dry it, then get to painting.  .-.

Close to being done paper mâchéing!

Finished up the top half of the ribs on the right side. Started paper mâchéing the pelvis. Tomorrow I'll do another layer on the pelvis then start on the legs. I may go ahead and make the hands and feet with cardboard tomorrow, also. I think it's coming along really nicely. After I do all that, I'll flip it over and do the back of it. 

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.

Starting my skeleton sculpture

I know it doesn't look like a skull at all right now, but it will be eventually.

Paper Mâché skeleton sketch

I did two different sketches for my paper mâché skeleton. They're both pretty much the same. I am hopefully going to do a Day of the Dead theme.  I would like to have a lace veil with a flower headband and a pretty bouquet to match the headband. I would like to add more stuff onto it, but I'm not sure what yet.

Shoe...

I had to add a bigger base to it, I think its too big, but I'm stuck with it now. Not sure what to paint on it... Then where that shiny, foil looking paper is, I decided to that instead of trying to incorporate the HollyWood sign there because some parts of California are very weird, like on my shoe, but other parets are very delicate and beautiful.

Shoeeeeeeee.

Glued my shoe on my stand. Made sure you could still see all the important stuff. It's not done, but I'm not sure if Mrs Wheeler is going to let us finish them. If so, then I'll definitely finish and post more pictures, but if not, then this is it.
