Clay days

I never put up a few final things and I feel as though I should, despite my class being over.
_________

First day; Fist


The first day did go pretty smoothly, though I'm not a master sculpter by ANY means. My biggest issue was trying to find the right tools to get what i wanted. It also sucked that about 3/4ths into it I discovered the atomical INcorrectness of it and that was frustrating to work around. But all and all, it didn't come out looking too terrible. Good first attempt at molding clay I would say.



Project; Clay character

I had a hard time figuring out what object I wanted to "animate" so I asked my good table mate Amber to do it for me in trade for me finding her an object. It was agreed and we set off in search through out the WASH building. I found a glove, which she later animated into a Squidapus, and she found a cassette tape. Meet Carlton CassetteTape:




I definately love the way this charater came out. He looks a bit crude but that's alright, It was the concept of his character that I was more concerned about. Heavily, heavily inspired by this image:

Unfortunately though, I do not know who made this or where it was found. I had recieved it via USB from a friend a few years back. Just know that it is not mine.
