So here they are, Muffie and Chip. Chip's the one with the lego chin rest. There was so much clay used to build up his face on the wig head that it tends to tip over at the slightest touch. Given that the cats like to wander through the work table here I leave the chin rest in place during the day, and especially when I'm working on him.
This is the third layer of paper on them, still sticky wet. The first two layers of paper were newspaper, this was office paper, scrounged from the daily grind. I just made sure it went on with the white side out so I could try to get a feel for how much detail I've losted. Their upper lips seems to be gone and the deep lines I'd gotten in there to show an expression seems to be gone too. Still, enough detail remains for this project.
Tomorrow when they are dry I'll be cutting them off the wig heads and begin the shoulders for Muffie, hands for them both and maybe feet for Muffie too, depends on how late I have to work tomorrow. Tonight my energy was gone pretty early.
