New toy for the studio! Haven't named him yet, but I'm sure something will come to me soon. This head ecorche' model will be extremely helpful as I try to learn the muscles and structure of the face, although I wish there were another layer (maybe one you could take on and off? I've seen that on some models) with the skin and fat. (by the way -- I didn't sculpt this one. I bought it from a sculpture supply store)

And here is the shape my hand is in this week, unfortunately. I sprained the middle joint of my thumb very badly earlier this year and had to wear this splint for a good 6 weeks, 24/7. It's acting up again from all the sculpting. But this week is a busy one for me with family/kid issues, so I'm taking advantage of the time off to baby my thumb.
