Microsculpting clay at the SF Zoo - polar bear...

[Bob in SF]

One of life's little pleasures - microsculpting at the zoo.

Sculpey polymer clay, household tools, and a little patience:

I'll airbrush it later - should make a nice bola.

You show a lot of patience with your work Bob,,,
the results are astounding in the detail on this scale,,,
Great Work,, even better with a lil color added !!!

:speechless-smiley-0: Amazing Bob!

Your attention to detail is impeccable...:smilingface201097jq:..
i would leave this one as is....just my opinion...

[Bob in SF]

Many thanks, Whit and Scorp - good idea, Scorp - as is.

Nothing like a lump of clay and a good subject.

Warm regards - Bob

Coat of clear with a lil patina would bring out the detail,,,
seems over time the humidity might affect the raw clay,,,
but with the looks of this,, it's not the first,, so I'm thinkin
you've got your bases covered ,,, NICE WORK !!!

[Bob in SF]

Thanks, Whit - many ways to coat a bear...

[Norm]

Awwhhh, a baby bear feeding from a stainless straw!!! JK.. great work as usual!

Thanks Norm - I'd have done a pair, but it would have been too bipolar.

Thanks Norm - I'd have done a pair, but it would have been too bipolar.

I sure enjoy your micro humor also Bob....heheee...bipolarbears would surely need some "other" playmates....

Thanks, Jimmy - I've occasionally had to wipe the micro-smile off my face at home - trying to mask it.

[JimmyG]

yeah Bob, that kinda mask of a micro-smile ain't very plot-able, vectors required....

we sure appreciate ya showing your stuff here Bob....inspires me for sure....

I asked my bride about my final plotting.

She said she's lined up a first rate taxidermist, so no plot will be required.

Okay, you guys gotta stop. My sides are hurting from laughing so hard.
