Tip Toland sculpting a bust at Seward Park Clay Studio

[ammasbhama]

I use a pipe armature made of basic galvanized 1/2 inch pipe, screwed down to plywood with a base flange. I t's a kind of zig zag design that follows the angle of the neck. I apply the clay solid in the correct proportions. Carve in the features, refine alot, then let it sit. When it 's leather hard, I cut it off the armature to hollow.

Fun!

lol. I hope you don't hollow out the bust with the model watching! That is pretty gruesome-looking!

Great work tho!
