Skinning Steve

We’ve spent the weekend getting some skin on Steve. Hands, feet, and skull are all skulpted, but I need the rest to dry a bit more before I go ahead and start attaching. Have to give it a few days.

Now the question starts to become just how I want to bundle him up, and just how do we want to paint and stain him once this step is over?

I also need to do some more work on the base, he’s just not quite to a point where he will stand up on his own. Need to get this part dry, then add some mache to the bottom side of the base.

Other to-do items are adding some femurs and add a finishing coat of latex to him after the hands, feet, and head are all attached and corpsed up. But, he’s coming along quite swiftly.
