Finally, some progress.
Today, I sat down to work on the arms. The results were less than impressive. I decided to give the skull a shot instead. The Apoxie Clay was clearly unsuitable for this one, as I wouldn't have enough time to sculpt it before the clay started to set. Super Sculpey Firm seemed a much better choice. When I thought it was close to finished, I took a few pictures, and when I looked at them I realised the forehead was way too low. After adding some clay, I decided that while it may not be super accurate, it was good enough. The eye sockets are not finished, because I reached my masking tape and aluminum foil core before they were deep enough. I'll have to take care of that after hardening the clay. I think I'll leave it alone for a day or so before popping it in the oven to see if I still think it's good enough...
