Dallen, he's probably going to Disneyworld!!! Just bask in the glow for a while.
She looks great. I forget, is she a real interpretation of a certain Queen or your own creation from your brain?
After watching this thread develop and the work you put in, I see why some sculptures are so expensive. You have more patience than I do, I probably would have quit months ago.

Jerry asked:
This is a painting of a stone statue. The statue is chipped badly so the painter fixed it up. I liked something about it. I didn't like her; she looks kind of disagreeable, but the idea I liked.
And i used this gal as a model for her head. I made a few changes in that as well.

Re: Da Queen
Absolutely incredible Richard, are those hair braids the same you were working on a few years ago? I remember you working out lots of kinks in casting something like that back then.
I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints the sinners are much more fun...

Re: Da Queen
Yes. Those braids are what I cut my foundry teeth on.
Casting something that thin and long is a bit of a problem. I found that red brass works much better for that than does silicon bronze. I must have cast 200 of them to get enough good ones to use.
She has been a long process. I have done a lot of other things in between work on her.

Re: Da Queen
Wow, I thought you were well along in your casting when you were workin on those. Cool though, glad I picked up on that because it really shows what you have put into this.
