I couldn't work on the sword last night after I dropped you off Sharry. I had some wine and then got too sleepy...

Sword progresses steadily onward. This part is baking now. I will add the diamond after the circle thing near the hilt is cured. Sorry--I'm bad about my weapons terminology.

Aw crap...forgot to bake the back of the shield. I'll have to try to remember that the next time I bake.

I call this sword almost done! Just needs painting, and the leatherwork wrapped around the hilt. It shouldn't look so raggedy once it's all painted up.
Here it is wrapped in leather. I don't like the way it looks. I will try the herringbone wrap and if it still looks stupid, I'm going to sculpt it in...Reason why I need to get this done is because I need to get started on sculpting the hand holding the sword...if I can manage that. There's always a first time.

Look how perfectly the left hand grasps the sword. This is the same hand that the figure came with. I should have left well enough alone...I should have painted on some liquid latex to create the gloves....But noooooOO!!!! I wanted to sculpt gloves over them, and seriously burned all the fingers to nubs in the oven. Grrrr!!!
Now I am left to sculpt the left hand. I have no choice. Crap. Things always happen for a reason. Only this time I just can't see it...I could just cry....And why does my foot want to cramp up on me? Why oh why? I'm going to bed....

Sorry about the hand, but the swords kicks major butt
"...The agony of my soul found vent in one loud, long and final scream of despair..." - Edgar Allan Poe
Here are the beginnings of my sculpted hand and the death of the other hand:
The thumb is a bit whacky but I want to cure the clay and I will shave it down with a sharp blade, because I don't want to mess it up. It's the first hand I made ever and will not be the last. I wish you guys could see it in person. It looks almost real, especially because of the way the light goes through the clay.

MacDonald from Conquest of the Planet of the Apes. I used a crinkled ball of foil to add the texture to his hair.
