lunavideogames I hope you like the finished project. I'm glad yours is one I got a head start on. Because of my left hand giving out I'm cutting back the number of photos I post each day. No matter what I will get everyone's work done. I wonder if Jamie has seen that drink on a menu. We hope to be at Tiki Oasis 17.

===============================

Wish List #7 Part two for lunavideogames. The attempt to make Leah as a hula girl.

I started by twisting clay together and then smoothing it with a wooden "thumb".

Once that was done I added a leg.

Then a second leg.

Next came two bumps and an arm.

I made sure both arms were the same length. I forgot to show that I did this with the legs as well.

As I work on the head I'm thinking about how I could make a mold for Leah in this position.

I build up the face rather than carve it.

I just add and smooth.

Ok, now she is roughed up as a "stick" figure. Not very curvy.

I thought about molding for days. I decided that it was beyond my capabilities to do. Notch has made a mold with about 27 pieces. That is just too hard.

So it was off to plan B with Treg agreeing to see if it would work or not.

Cheers, Wendy
