It feels like I've been working on this armature forever! I really didn't think it would take me so long to patch together the wire pieces around the newspaper. Essentially sewing the pieces together with wire has been pretty fun, but its sad to know that the end goal is to not be able to see most of the patchwork underneath once the plaster is put over it. After today's class, I only have one more joint to cover (which have been hard since the mesh doesn't like conforming into shape), and then I can finally start really thinking about the size and shape of the base. Next week we're moving on to oil painting which is cool, but it'll leave little time for sculpture in between. But, for my sculpture piece specifically I think it will be easy enough to work on it piece by piece, especially since I'll have to put the plaster on the armature piece by piece anyways to ensure it's integrity.

You are getting there, even though it may not seem like it.... I applaud you for working big - but that takes time. Great documentation of your process!
