You have real skills in sculpture.Great, great shapes for a first sculpture. I know how difficult it's to create something credible with separate metal parts. Thanks to show and to tell us some snatches of your path.
I know too that the photo is just a point of view and ca,nt reveal the reality, maybe the default are in others sides :-)
Thank you. This was in the pre-digital photography days, so it's a scan of photo and the resolution isn't that great. And I guess most people wouldn't see the mistakes, but trained eyes like ours would. ;)
