Sorry about the delay in updates. :frown: I suppose one should not try to do anything requiring a modicum of attention durring the holidays, as it seems almost every time I was ready to work on her, something else came up that needed immediate attention. But this update will let you see where we are now.
So, what's up?
Hey, are those some nostrils I spy?
As you can probably see, the tail was still getting bulked out and smoothed in this shot. A little later (once I finally found more sandpaper -- don't ask) she got her first sanding!
Yep, it's dusty in these parts.
I have a couple other areas to fill and sand smooth, but the major sculpting is finished. I know a lot of merponies get scales applied to their fishy half, but to me at least, I think Coral will look more like her ref picture without them.
So, probably the next time I update, you'll get to see her as the paint, oil, and powder start going on. (That's my favorite part! Well, assuming I get the tail smoothed to my satisfaction. If it's not, we're back to mixing apoxie, smoothing, sanding, rinse, repeat.)
