I did a new childrens book portfolio sample. I took the scene from Peter Pan where Captain Hook is forcing Wendy to walk the plank into the ocean.
I intended it to be a long piece but I also cropped it to a more standard size. Which do you prefer?
11″x17″
11″x14″
Here are some of my process sketches:
I still have to make the board but here are some not so proferssional shots of the final pieces. I’ll shoot them properly when I have the board done too.
Swan Lake chess set:
Okay so I’m STILL not done with this chess set but I’m getting closer.
Here is a sort of vague shot of where I’m at now.
I have all the pieces complete but they still need a lot of detailing.
The reason I’m behind schedule:
I made molds which ended up sticking to the plastic that I’m casting these in (its not supposed to do that). I also had to break all of my originals pieces to get them out of the mold so I ended up with unworkable molds and broken originals.
LOOOOOOOONG story short I had to put the original sculptures back together, remold them, and cast them all again. I still have a LOT of finishing touches to do but I have all the pieces cast for the most part so I’m doing okay.
It’ll all be worth it when I’m finished:) I hope……
Stay tuned
Here are some process photos of my Swan Lake chess set. 
I’d like to give a special shout out to Dremel! The lovely little tool that is going to change my life forever! I love you already!
Tune in next week when I’ll be casting them all and making the chess board.
