A very swirly vulture totem for the impossibly cool
FishyBoner! Probably going to carve down the face to be a little sharper in its bony angles once I bake this one.
~2 inches, Super Sculpey

I've done inside-the-sculpture incense burners before and it's not a terribly good idea to use Sculpey for them. BUT I could totally do a totem holding a well to put the incense in, though I would likely have to use a different material for that part - if you're using cone incense, it will completely fuck up the Sculpey once it burns down. I'll have to research and see what would work better as far as materials, but it's definitely do-able as far as sculpting it! :D
Since it's still snowing here and doesn't feel like spring, I haven't really redone my alter for the season. Did however do some ritualistic stuff for the spring equinox, but once this arrives I will be rearranging things for this to fit in with the energy, and hopefully have some flowers by then? Or maybe it will just keep snowing till next winter.
I was glad I got to do another sculpt with an offering plate (there's one on my personal totem so I can leave little flowers, and a bitty tankard so I can offer her drops of beer or whiskey!), I really like the idea of these totems being revered with little gifts! Thanks very much!
