White Ape of Barsoom--Update (3)

The fairing and blending and fine detailing of the hair continues. Fairing of the right half of the face/scalp is all but done; and both ears have been sculpted in their new apical location.

The forearms have been tentatively fitted, but yet to be permanently attached. As the club would prove to be major annoyance, if not outright hindrance, during painting, I have removed it proximal to the gripping hands, and hollowed the latter. I will rebuild an attachment peg, probably reinforced with wire.

Movin' right along. . .

UPDATE - 16.08.11. . . The forearms have been fitted. This required some rearrangement of the coiffure, but all for the better. The club has been pegged and fitted.

Getting close. . .

UPDATE - 17.08.11. . . The forearms have been permanently attached. . . Let the finishing begin!

    ALL your progress sounds great!! :-)) I would love to see an updated ip shot once you have finished all your detailing!! That's with the understanding that you might not have the time.

    Keep up the good work my friend. I'd love to see this one with some paint applied!!1....

    All my best!
