Slow going

Between basketball and skiing and school with the kids, slow going on progress.

Working on a head for the Barghest.

Ordering seeds for the year, I’m looking forward to seeing how well these pumpkins do.

Should prove to be interesting jacks.

Little side project that got interrupted. “Witch Jars” of Pumpkinrot fame. Got some additions to the idea I couldn’t get to till the weather warms up.

Been looking over RadoJavor lately.

Didn’t realize it at the time, but back in 2010, it was a pic that he did (but uncredited on the site I originally saw it) that started this whole Harvest thing.

It was sitting as the wallpaper on my work computer (since a pic of some skulls I made was found offensive and I was asked to change) when the weather decided to destroy most the things we had built for 2010. The more I stared at it, the more I came to realize how fun it would be to recreate.

Well, finding him has perhaps provided inspiration for 2014. (no way I could do this with the Barghest and stuff going this year.

Barghest update

Been a busy month with the kids.

Slowly coming together.

Frame update for lower body, and ability to hide the fog machine that will be crucial to this one.

Also begun work on a head. Sculpted out of clay, then made a plaster shell.

Now I can use a different clay to finish up the sculpt with. Also time to wire everything up in the frame, and start the mudding. Here’s hoping the weather warms some.
