"Thereby was wrought the mighty tameless Boar with foaming jaws; real seemed the pictured thing, as by Aleides' giant strength the brute was to Eurystheus living borne on high."


The evolution of my boar, it took me four days in all the make the whole thing. I started with a balloon, newspaper and lots of pva glue. I made the shape with newspaper and tape and just made lots of layers. I had so much fun, I felt like a kid back in primary school. I had one hiccup when I tried to varnish the head and the blue gouache bled so I had to paint over it all again. I thought its best to varnish is but I'm a little hesistant to try it again and I do spray it often with lots of hairspray. Also I'm finding it quite difficult to photograph, so I will have to use an actually camera and not my iphone. Overall I'm happy with the outcome, I'm just a little clueless of what to do next.
