Sketch and Maquette

This is a sketch- and now today- a maquette (or modello) for a multi-stone garden sculpture I’d like to do.

I think granite would be cool, and then paint the ravens and Odin with red Lithichrome paint.

The maquette is in gray/brown air dry clay. Should be about the right color when dry. I’ll paint the ravens and Odin with the red acrylic, and then put it all together on a base. At that point I’ll decide if I want to go garden-size. I was thinking in the neighborhood of three-ish feet tall.
