I'm having too much trouble with a full sized 3D head at the moment, so I may go with a nice l'il picture instead.
Worry not- it will absolutely without a doubt be made of sparkle vinyl. With real stitching.

My mug got a crack while drying before bisque 
Teacher is going to split it into 2 parts and glue it back together with a mixture of vinegar and clay. So hope it works out, so hope to finish it before the deadline.

OK, I'll update - started working on a mold today (crappy cellphone picture)
We'll see what happens; the sculpt is a little too complicated for my mold-making skills, but I guess that's how you grow

Molds are hard. I spend a lot of time checking for undercuts on my mugs before I send them on. I hope it works out perfectly, Wendy

Some lucky winner gets my (first ever) hand and machine stitched (plus silicone glue) Sparkle Vinyl Shrunken Head Portrait !!
Measures approx 11 1/2" x 10 1/2 " x 3/4" and is mounted on cardboard, so it's super light. Hard to photograph with all the shiny.
Anyhow, it gave me all kinds of new ideas and I learned a lot while making it. Thanks for the motivation and,
of course, favorite topic, everyone!

Looks great amybean, I'd hang it for sure.
We still have a few weeks so I think that's still time to start and finish. (Yeah right eh? still need to wrap mine up....)
