Re-assembling Grace #1 beginning detail work

Beginning the wax part of the skeleton adding texture etc- Charm (the name of this Grace)  will become more like an ecorche when finished, reminiscent of death

Grace #1 Charm beheaded to do detail work

Adding hair, pore work eyebrows etc...

Grace #2 : Beauty

Beginnings of Grace  #2 (Beauty). Will have death cradling beauty...you're seeing 2 sides of a face cast which eventually will be fused into one. Death will be a type of Memento mori /Vanitas/Vanite but from the groin up...looking forward to this piece!
