So, I've really kind of been struggling to get anything done, and I feel like I've just hit a wall. I hit a super thick, super strong wall, like a wall that would be sufficient to be the door to a vault at the richest bank in the world. I feel like I would have a much easier time if I could make a mold that was a circle. I'm not sure what to do, and that's where my thinking's at right about now.
I found a happy picture of a bouncy ball because it's a perf sphere which is what I need and it's happy. so, yay.

I finished another one. it's pretty much the same as the last but a little different. The neck is shaped a little differently (and attatched in a really crappy way). But it's also a slightly different shape. So yeah, that's about it. and the hole is not so round because I forgot to cut it out until it was bone dry!
But, basically, I've been feeling really uninspired lately, so if anyone has any SERIOUS suggestions about what the heck i should do for the next seven projects please tell me :) and trent, I'm not making a turtle.

Frank Giorgini's Udu Utar Played by Brian Melick

THE PLAYING OF THE DRUM :) for those of you who were just dying to know!! btw it's played by the sexiest man alive, so brace yourself.
In addition, this is the style I've mainly been trying to build lately. More traditionally, they are more round with a neck that blends in well with the rest of the body. Amy doesn't have a good mold for that shape, however, so I've been using the big blue one to make drums more like this one.
