goblin from clay.

So Lawrence Yang, from the Blow at Life blog suggested that I try clay. I have been saving my clay for pottery, but recently I was given several hundred pounds of clay (granted, it needs re-worked, but still it was free.) So I decided to try sculpting with it.

Little goblins are the first things my hands seem to make, and also I have no idea what they should be doing, so this one doesn't have any arms, but I like him. Tell me what you think.



Since this guy I have found a different technique for making the eyes where you dig out the socket, add the eyeball, then put separate lids on. This technique is much more realistic, but I'm not sure I like it as much with the goblins.

  1. With no arms it reminds me of the house elf heads mounted in the stairwell of 12 Grimmauld Place.
