Description Finally, After roughly three weeks of sculpting, making a mold, and painting I have finally finished this project! This is a sculpture of my Argonian, Phillip. I made this for my final project in my sculpture class.
My teacher wanted us to do a self portrait by altering a face to represent yourself. I like reptiles, fantasy stuff, and video games, so I decided to sculpt my Argonian. My teacher also wanted us to make a mold out of plaster.

I think this turned out quite well. The mold was very complicated though, due to the horns, but surprisingly it came out with only a few minor pieces missing, like part of the right ring on his horn and the brow horns. The horns are super fragile. I accidentally broke them off roughly four times already. XD My only complaints are the head is uneven and I didn't have enough time to work on the details of the armor. Also I had to rush on the paint job. I felt I could have spent more time to add different tones to the scale and the armor, but I had a limited amount of time to get it done. I think if I had an extra week or two I could have done a better job with the symmetry and the paint. Other than that, I love how it turned. This by far is the best sculpture I have ever done ( also the most detailed.)

Hope you like it. Comments and critique are appreciated!

Haha, the beady eyes and the rather bulbous nose really makes this piece stand out. I think it looks best at the front, makes him look innocent in a sort of way .

Awesome motherf**ing kickas job, dude! You actually have skills!

thanks! He liked it. He like the multiple colors and the detail work I did with the scales. The only point he made is that the grey skin could be a tad darker, which I agree with. The paint dried a lighter color than I hoped.
