So I carried my new wooden friend home, mind you I did get a lot of strange stares from the neighbors near by but I was destined to find some sort inspiration to fix him up.
I found a bucket of old rusted nails, and thought I could do something with them. I picked out the best nails in the best conditioned and off I went. I had an idea of nailing these nails into the top of the wooden mans head to give him an interesting look.
I was going for a walk one day when I came across a whole pile of beer bottle caps. I saw one that was flattened completely and had another great idea. I began collecting beer bottle caps from everyone I knew. I would go to parties and tell people that I would like their caps. I got a lot of strange looks but when I explained to them my idea they would become interested. My idea was to create a armor looking body using flattened bottle caps.
Finally I had enough bottle caps and started to put my wooden man together. I than took some left over clay from my mask, and covered his face creating that cracking look. Once it was dry I used modge poge to keep it all in place.
The last little touch I added was wired flowed with thread wrapped around it to the top of his head. I think this sculpture turned out quiet neat!
