Clay Maquette of The King


I have started working on the Clay Maquette for the Troll King. 
I had a few issues with this maquette because of the size. At first, I tried to make the whole maquette in one go, but because of the size of the character, the weight once the upper body was built caused the armature to bend and so it kept falling over. I decided to just make the legs, let them drive and then build the rest once the legs were solid and could not bend. 

This seemed to work well, however the ankles still broke a little after the upper parts of the body and head were added. This was easily fixed with a little Uhu glue though.
