In Progress » Alien Woman Bust » Initial Sculpting

The other day I got an interesting proposition from a woman who I have been waiting to buy a purebred Siamese kitten from. She’s apparently into Gothic,Giger, and alien/mutated-human-styled artwork and whatnot and asked if I would consider creating an original small sculpture for her in exchange for a pair of kittens. Of course I said yes and for the past three days I’ve been working on a nice-sized bust.

She sent me a link to an artist’s website called “BROM” and wanted something along those lines. http://www.bromart.com/ I decided to take some queues from several illustrations, add some Giger influence, and throw in some of my own ideas. It’s been an evolving piece and has taken on a life of its own I feel. I started with a skull and then added bulk to it to build-up the flesh and bone. Below are a series of images I’ve taked throughout the process. I’d say she’s about half-way sculpted at this point with much more to do.
