Sketching in Clay

May 31, 2011 15:26

So I've got a dragon featuring in my next painting (my first?).  I doodled and sketched a few dozen possibilities for the head, but wasn't quite hitting it.  So I thought I'd bring in the third dimension and do my next "sketch" in clay to see if I could hit what I was looking for.  I think I did!  I might play w/ some extra spines (I know I want a spiney tail, so the head has to gel with that), but I think the dragon in the final piece is going to look one hell of a lot like this maquette.
