Labrador with a Biscuit Statue

Published on July 7, 2017 by Raud Kennedy1 Comment

The last couple of Lab sculptures I made leaned toward realism so I felt like cutting loose with this one. It’s a work in progress. I need to let it sit for a bit while I decide what needs to be tweaked before smoothing out all of the tool marks.

I’ve also noticed that when casting in concrete as opposed to painting them with acrylics, much of the facial expression is revealed by the shadows the creases and wrinkles cast.

That milk chocolate look wasn’t really working for me so I made another go at it with some black to give the brown more depth.

And here is the chocolate brown version.

Here is the concrete version of the Fleegle mold I demolded yesterday.

After a few speed bumps, I was able to make a hydrostone casting from the new Labrador mold I modeled after Fleegle. I just filled the mold with concrete and should have an outdoor garden Labrador in a few days ready to keep an eye out for squirrels in the backyard.
