Voynich Nymph 3

In the video below I finish modeling the full body of a third “nymph” from the Voynich Manuscript, with my porcelain sculpting method. I’ve already made a first and second nymph using the same method. Now, there is one more to sculpt in this group of four, each being individually inspired by the style of the original drawings. Once all four are done, I’ll be combining them into a sculpture design (which is going to end up being a bit different than my original plan…) and kiln firing the porcelain, which at this point is still in its unfired state, and needs to dry slowly before being fired. And of course, these Voynich manuscript nymphs would not be complete without their stars. For that, I’ll be returning to some glasswork!
