Okay! A little behind here on my posts, but decided to come back for a second attempt at this sculpt. Also, working on doing a better job with the documentation. I obtained another PoseSpace set (Evae005) to work from. I tried the Da Vinci Eye app with some success, but found it most useful to grab a subset of the images and physically print them out to stand behind the piece as I worked.
I went back to my earth based clay (Black Raven), which will turn pure black when fired. (One image included here as an example.) I didn't know how aluminum would respond in the kiln at 2,000°, so I used a wad of paper and tape. The problem with this was, it did NOT provide enough structural support to the clay, so maintaining the gesture was challenging (clay kept sagging under its own weight. :-P ) The photos here are of the clay just as it is reaching the "leather-hard" stage in drying

Learn the entire process for sculpting the female torso!
The brown one ended being a good study on primary forms and gesture. So, I added some secondary forms (abs, breasts, clavicle) but then lost those exaggerated forms when I started trying to refine and soften them. I got lost on the location of the obliques between among the ribs and armpit but Im happy withe the whole pec,breast, armpit, clavicle transitions. Good learning.
