Deviation Actions
Now that it's been over a year since my last journal entry, I thought it might be fitting to drop a few lines in here just in case anyone still comes by my page now and again.
I've not done a lot of sculpting lately (boo!). My artistic pursuits have mostly been centered around assisting
with the Soldier series, and the rest of my time goes into work, building electronic gizmos and messing around with video games. Let's just say my muse is on vacation for a while.
I will be back, though.

Thanks for all the help :)
A big thank you to those that weighed in with ideas for the peace project I've been working on. It's finished now, and going to the auction this evening to raise some money for a good cause.
In the end, I went with a theme that came from suggestions that ~DarkTailss (https://www.deviantart.com/darktailss) and :iconadflictus: made. Then :iconmeltmill: gave me the idea to include some cutesy animals, so I threw in a couple of foxes playing on the piece. I'll be posting the deviation momentarily, so it will probably be up by the time anyone sees this.
Thanks again for all the help, folks. I was stuck in a big way on this piece, as it's a bit outside my normal subject matter
Looking for Inspiration
I've taken on a project to develop a sculpture (no more than 12" high) that embodies the concepts of peace, nonviolence and/or war resistance. I'm at a loss for subject matter, without reverting to any of the standard and somewhat tired symbology. You folks see what kind of stuff I do with clay. Any ideas for projects along these lines that my talents might lend themselves to? All I can really offer is some creative credit when it's done and posted, along with that awesome feeling that goes along with helping out a fellow deviant. :)
My first DD!
While I'm not sure what the protocol is, I'll go ahead and say a big thanks to !Thebuild (https://www.deviantart.com/thebuild) for the DD and to :iconshimmer-dragon: for recommending it.
I'm certainly excited about getting noticed around here, but it seems a daily deviation is a double-edged sword, as I now have more messages waiting than I actually thought possible. Many hundreds, in fact. So don't get offended if I don't respond promptly. Honestly, my first reaction when I logged into my account this evening was "what in the hell?!?" at the message count. Then :iconMoonsongwolf: came over to the computer and helped me sort it out. She's an old hand at dealing with DD
Long time, no see!
I suppose I should start off by apologizing for my hiatus from DA. I went to do other things for a while, and left a handful of projects on the bench, quite literally. I'm coming back to things now, and getting my sculpting going again.
A big thanks to Vlei and crew for the Mythical Blind Date contest they ran recently. Second place! Not too bad... I'll keep looking for contests I can enter sculptures into. It was a good motivator to get to work.
I have a sea monster sculpture coming up soon as the second entry of a cryptozoology series, with more in design right now. It's actually finished and painted, but needs mounting to the base
