(Had to share). I have that wonderful little Bowen designs NC bust,but it's lack of body sort of annoyed me. I figured that if I could make a cast of the head I could make my own body for it. I cast the head, and I bought one of those corny plastic skeleton kits to serve as a basis for the body. Unfortunately it turned out to be on a different scale than the Bowen head, so I decide to make my own head.
So I made the whole figure on the basis of an Airfix skeleton, with thin iron wire to hold it together, and simple white clay on top of it. the fine details where done in Milliput epoxyclay, and the tail was made of the metal wire in an old underwired bra. (sometimes it pays to be a chick). Oh yeah, i used a book on anatomy too. It was fascinating!
it's not fully done yet, but you get the idea. Eat your heart out, mr. Bowen.

Marry you? Hmm. I'm extremely fond of gravad lax, and IKEA is my savior, but I'm still not moving to Uppsala http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif.
IF you're bored too, by the way, try the heromachine! http://www.heromachine.com/heromachine.html
Don't miss it, it's a really cool piece of flash programming. And it puts Dave Cockrum out of a job.

*hug* Ow c'mon drags! These aren't, like, useful things...It's mostly a matter of precious time invested wrongly. You probably have other talents that can actually make you money. http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif
And, the bowen one is a lot better. Especially close-up.

I'm not christian anyway, so perhaps that is for the best...
Thanks for link! It did crush some time (I forgot my pizza in the owen for instance - so now I'm eating something black and stone heard substance, it really doesn't taste pizza either!) http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif
Nighty's fantastic, though!

Oops. Forgive me, I would not have posted this link if I had known it would have a negative influence on your diet.
It's pretty bad isn't it? It had me busy for hours.

For my (and only this far) first creation, I used Nightcrawler as model. What should I else do? But the result was far from our precious elf! He was blue though!
And Elfwing, who/what are you? You have splendid site, draws marvellous and also shapes unquestionably! Your Elf puts Bowens' creation at the bottom of the Atlantic. You are amazing! *Hmmm* You don't think this statue is good as a gift to me, do you? I could always give you a strange fork (I happened to bend while, eating...)? http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif

Kick @ss Elwing! That makes me wanna stop making ceramic Anubisii (or whatever the plural of Anubis is) and make another Nightcrawler!
*stops and thinks about it* Nahh. Anubis is telling me to stick with him. *feels torn*
