Sculpture, Day One

Today I started laying up and sculpting the Dodo's head. It is being sculpted and vacuum formed in two halves to ensure the jaw fits together nicely, and with the MDF form as a base the two halves of the head should be able to be jointed together with a strong glue and internal reinforcement well.
It's proving somewhat difficult to envision what the two halves of the head will look like as a whole, so I plan to create some kind of polystyrene cradle and bulldog-clip the two sides of the MDF bases together so I can see what it looks like as a complete head.
