Good day! How's today?

Okay, so this is the last good sculpture I managed to make during my summer sculpture class. It's of Bill Cipher from Gravity Falls!

As you can see from the first picture, I originally sculpted arms and legs onto Bill. But when I was transporting the sculpture to the art studio, his leg broke off. Soooo, I had the GENIUS idea to let him sit in a little bit of water, since the clay was mostly dry, gah! I thought it soften the clay a bit, but, haha, of course it was already too dry! Instead of softening the clay, the clay just crumbled wherever it was touching the water. So the legs and half of the body crumbled off. Then the arms fell off while I was fixing the body, so I just gave up on that idea, haha! I was running out of time in the class, so I had to get my sculptures fired before they closed the studio.

But yeah, so this is how it came out! I also had trouble getting the glaze on it correctly, which resulted in me having to repaint it again, but I got it eventually! It's not too bad though, I still kinda like it!

Okay, so this is the last sculpture I'll be posting for a while, since the class ended a while ago!
