A Giraffe Is Born!

I have recently begun sculpting the head and shoulders of a giraffe in clay. It is probably about the size of a baby one.
When I’m happy with the sculpt, I’ll let it dry and then make a two piece silicon mould. From this I can experiment with casting in different resins etc.

I will be moulding the ears separately as they will be too fragile to cast as part of the main head sculpture and likely to snap off.

More photos to follow very soon, when the initial sculpt is complete!
