Painted Toucan

There’s this old sculpture of a toucan that’s been sitting on my desk behind my computer for a while. I made it a few years ago out of some kind of water-based clay and did not think it turned out very well, so I thought it’d be fun to practice painting on.

I’m sorry these photos are such bad quality!

I think this is a great example of how much a paint job can add to a sculpture. This is what it looked like unpainted:

A world of difference! It’s gone from being an eyesore to something I like to look at now. :)

The colors are a little duller than I want (the paint I’m using is very, ah … cheap), so I’m looking forward to applying the sealer to increase the contrast. :) Just waiting for it to dry now.

3D painting is a lot of fun. :)
