On Hiatus

I might not post again on here in a while since I am getting some new clay, paints, etc. and I am going to be experimenting with making real costumes for my people and real hair. I can't wait to try out some new techniques, and anyway, I have hit the number ten mark on my list of characters, so I think I have earned a little break. (:  The Shakespeare half of my brain shall rest awhile, while I tread new ground in the world of sculpting.
Cheers.

The Merry Wives of Windsor

This character is Mistress Page, a merry wife who, along with Mistress Ford, makes a complete fool out of a certain man named Sir John Falstaff. One of the hardest parts of making this character was trying to make her look the right age, and merry, but not over merry. Well, without further Ado, here is Mistress Page.

MISTRESS PAGE
So will I if he come under my hatches, I'll never
to sea again. Let's be revenged on him: let's
appoint him a meeting; give him a show of comfort in
his suit and lead him on with a fine-baited delay,
till he hath pawned his horses to mine host of the Garter.


Thus plots Mistress Page against Falstaff.
