A wonderfully imaginative and well planned piece of sculpture, with a exceptional amount of care applied to accuracy, from the pose of the parrot to the smaller details, such as the colouration and especially the tag around the leg. Basil The african grey by mangakasan

Basil is an OOAK sculpture commissioned by :iconruby-dreams: She asked me to create her pet parrot Basil and he was loads of fun to do, also because it's the first bird/feathered creature i've sculpted so lots of challenges there, also a piece i created with air dry clay in majority over polymer clay (just the head and neck/chest is done in polymer clay).
Sculpted over a wire frame with airdry and polymer clays, has hand cast/painted eyes and was painted with acrylics and pastels.
:star:I will open sculpture commissions again next month (only 2 slots!) Reservings spots for them are now open! >mangakasan.deviantart.com/jour…
