Sculpt a Rooster Portrait - Using WED Clay and Plaster Cloth

I just started on a sculpture of a rooster, using WED clay, plaster cloth, and (next video) Magic Sculpt epoxy clay.

These just happen to be the materials I had on hand. If you'd like to make a rooster portrait and you don't have these materials, watch the video to see how you could achieve the same thing using items you already have in the house.

If I forgot any, please let me know. :)

Be sure to watch for the next video - I've already started removing the clay from the inside of the plaster cloth shell, and I'll begin adding the Magic Sculpt during puppy's afternoon nap. This fellow should be done in a day or two.

And if you make a rooster sculpture, please come back and show it off on the Daily Sculptors page. We'd love to see how it comes out.
