Sculpting class

First time sculpting for me, so this is a really new experience for me. It was really interesting and fun to do face casting and clay-sculpting practice. 

Face casting project

In this project we literally casting our of our friend's face straight with plaster. We learn how to prepare the plaster casting and the process making one. I made hand cast also in the end since we have a lot of plaster stock. It was quite long process especially when we need to wait for it to harden. We could also chisel it whatever we like before its completely harden. In here I made a tree-bark like texture for the cast.

Clay head sculpting practice

With 2 friends and one model, we sculpt a clay head model. it was hard for me since we need to be quite precise with the scales. It was tough and long process to get it right that at one point we just playing around with it.

"close enough" 

The Verdict

I didn't know how do you measuring the scales when you doing details on human's face. I learn it that you could pinpointed it from your ears to other features. It was super helpful trick for me. 

I would love to have more longer session for this class since it is useful for 3D modeling. Either way it is a nice change to be far from computer for some moments.
