...Making the body

i found this part particularly difficult, as this is my first model i had no idea how it was going to turn out and deciding to make something 3-D from 2-D planning makes it that much more of a challenge.

Anyway, these are my few first (poor) attempts:

Wire framing and Milliputt

Me starting to plastacine the model over (lol)

With the bulk of the body on (only white since that's the only colour available to me at the moment.
what i noticed is that his body's a bit malproportioned (is that a word?) also his tail looks a bit off, a bit beefy and so if i was to make this attempt at a pig body again, i wouldnt wire in a tail, i'd just stick a plastacine one on.

Also, i'm aware he doesnt have his head- i need to get to uni and hopefully chuck it on, it won't be matching in colours though which is unfortunate and a bit silly.. and on that bombshell- thank god this one's just a test!!
