How To Sculpt An Animal Portrait - Boer Goat, Part 1

Thanks for watching the video. If you have any interest in making a giraffe, I recently created a new pattern, based on the giraffe in this video. It turned out really well, and it’s now one of the most popular patterns on my site. You can find it here: …rtrait-boer-goat -- My first project for the new year is an animal portrait sculpture, and the animal I chose is a Boer Goat. In this video I start out with the basic shapes. In upcoming videos, I’ll begin to add the secondary shapes and finish filling out the armature with aluminum foil. The final skin will be either epoxy clay or paper mache clay - I haven’t decided on that part yet. The Winterset Ranch website has a lot of excellent photos of these beautiful animals, which really show off all the different color patterns of Boer goats. You can find the website here:
