Wednesday WIPs - Dem Bones, Dem Bones


 

Now that I'm back in the swing of "all things Halloween," I'm really focusing on skeletons...and lots of them!  These boney fellows look a little bizarre without their bottom jaws. I always sculpt the jaw separately and attach it at the end - that way I can position it just the way I want to give them lots of personality.

I'm working on big skeletons, little skeletons, skinny skeletons and full-figured ones. A couple of these will make their way to ESC Trading Co. as part of my 2012 Halloween submissions.

    Look at dem bones!
    I thought they were feet...then thought.. wait they don't have feet. Those are jaws!
    Good job!

    Hi David,

    Are your jaws free-moving? How cool would that be if they moved....

    Hugs,
    Meri

    Thanks everyone!

    @ Meri - no, I don't make the jaws moveable, but that actually sounds like an interesting idea!

    Do they really need a bottom jaw? They look cool as is. In zombie fights the jaw is the first to go lol.
