Here the outcome of several short sessions spent adding the design elements which mostly complete the figure. Feet and legs separation better described, also arms wrapping around more.

Head, now rounded over.

 Next, the notch of the face can be done, and then it’s time to think about the hand-working of the surface, sprial effect, and more about the degree of finish and refinement for the overall effect. It was Gary who said that this thing would start to come together more and more quickly as the work progressed. I am surprised to see it nearing the design ideal so soon. Soon. It’s been like a year and a half so far, but maybe only two weeks of actual working days.
