Clay Sculpture

Yesterday I started a clay sculpture of a winged horse. Prang air hardening clay in white is the medium. Began with an armature made from pvc tubing, wire, wood lath and a glue gun. This was covered with about 1/8" of clay. It is starting to dry out rather well after 24 hours. When this is dry I will add more clay to gain the overall final form but hold off to allow enough clay to be added that can have the defining features sculpted. As the horse is developed I will posts photographs. Hoping that this may lead into a full sized carousel horse.
