I started this 8 foot tall "GROOT" sculpture/statue yesterday morning… It's still a work-in-progress.
I used plumbing pipe insulators, foam squares and sculpted the head and hands out of clay… The hands are still hardening and will be hand-painted and installed tomorrow.
It is all hand painted and the wood-grain texture was inked in by hand with permanent Indian ink.
I took this last night… Head was sculpted but not painted yet…
And this photo was taken earlier today after the first few layers of paint on the head, along with some of the moss application.
More to come...
