kneadatite

I continued sculpting and painting my orrery. I used 'green stuff' kneadatite modelling putty. In the middle globe attached two more eyes, so they are all facing in opposite directions. This I think gives a symmetry to the sculpture which it wouldn't have if the eyes...

Glut

I have sensationalized these events. History does not always provide the drama and darkness that is needed for a good story. That is why I classify this post as fiction. The property of Treasure Holt certainly exists, and there are many ghost stories surrounding it....

Wings

Wings

I spent the morning trying to make the wings on this sculpture symmetrical I tried sculpting the wings individually, detached from the body. But the only way to get the symmetry right is to sculpt them while they are attached. I had to use two small pieces of wood to...

The Wings of Cthulhu

The Wings of Cthulhu

Today I did more sculpting on the wings of my Cthulhu sculpture. I need to make the wings symmetrical. I also need to make sure the clay is fully blended together so that they don't fall apart. Horror Art Prints HPLHS - The H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society

Orrery

I am making the background darker. I hope this will provide a starker contrast with the sea and the diamond I have been trying for a while to make the background, that is, the sky, a very even shade. I think the best way to do this is to make it as dark as possible. I...

Paying Attention To The Diamond Pattern

Paying Attention To The Diamond Pattern

I drew more of the diamond pattern at the top of the drawing. My aim here is to show the pattern of the sea within some of the geometric shapes of the diamond. I will also draw some light actually escaping from those geometric shapes rather than just being contained...

Thousands of small stones

Thousands of small stones

Today I focused on creating all the small stones for this drawing The difficulty is going to come when I draw the stones that meet the figure in the foreground. How will I prevent them from destroying the figures outline? There is a danger that the detail of the...
