Ninja Turtle (TMNT) Sculpture: Michelangelo

Ninja Turtle (TMNT) Sculpture: Michelangelo

I've been wanting to make a Michelangelo sculpture for the longest time and finally got around to making one. I had to decide which version I wanted to tackle and finally decided on the kawaii/ extra goofy Nickelodeon version. I will be posting progress pictures this week ^_^

Here we go!

My cats and I are studying our reference picture

 I finally get the armature hammered onto the base

 Added some foil for bulk

 Now I just added some clay in different sections according to where I think needed more bulk

 I shaped the head and my brother called it "penis head" D=

 It's slowly starting to come along!

 Smoothing out the clay bulks

 Shaping the hands, but realized that my wire for the arms were too short :(

 Since the wire is too short, the arm was breaking off, so I used a piece of foil to support it until I get it fixed next time I work on it

At this point, I am really happy how it progressed! Let me know what you think =D
