Thank You.. I feel that it is missing something.. I just cant get my eye on it..

elam: Everyone asks me that question.. It is basically pusing the clay inside with a sculpting tool, each strand .. strand by strand.. it took me 3 hours to the whole hair.. on the monkey..

That's awesome, Optima... but whatever possessed you to create a giant monkey out of clay? I know I never would've thought of that....

I dont konw.. I was just looking through sculptures and was looking for something challenging yet something I can learn from since it is the first time I use clay. And it captured me.. I wonder if I can do that..

That was basically it..

another little advice, try extending the lower lip forward (which happens when your upper lip pushes down on it)
