I have had to clean up too many oil paint cat prints in my time.<br /><br />Thanks for tip on Easyflex.innisarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05321227473311180542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-67056690461913546742010-07-20T11:09:45.912-04:002010-07-20T11:09:45.912-04:00Drew, try searching "corrugated flexible bras...Drew, try searching "corrugated flexible brass tubing" or the brand name "Easyflex."<br /><br />Margplum: Yes, us lateral thinkers can't throw anything out.<br /><br />Innis: Poor cat. She got diabetes and is no longer with us.

If you had a hero maquette, did you have some simpler ones as well to figure out more complex scenes or something of that sort?<br /><br />Since you're talking about maquettes, this seems like a great time to ask about something in Imaginative Realism regarding maquettes. I've search high and low for the flexible metal tubing you used for your bust maquettes, but I've turned up bupkis (and none of the hardware people I talk to know what the heck I'm talking about.) <br /><br />It sounded like a sturdier option than using armature wire, which eventually breaks from repeated stress, so I've been really curious to know just what the heck that stuff is.Andrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18262476114387821096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-4902262285479675692010-07-19T17:14:30.349-04:002010-07-19T17:14:30.349-04:00awesome!
