1) Trying to splice up the clay sculpture as best I can. This is my first attempt, so I'm nervous to take it apart.
2) The rough templates. These will be enlarged about 150% to reach the final size.
3) I've seen some s**t, man. I've seen some s**t.
4) Wow, this came together really well! The muzzle seems a bit off, though.
5) Back looks pretty good, too! I'll have to do some carving to get the "wings" to look right, and as usual, they may need to be bigger.
6) Oh, duh... the muzzle is on upside-down! I should have labeled which pieces join together (but where's the fun in that?)
