Green Sea Turtle part 6



 I thickened the kneck area shortened it also.

 Blended in the bulging eyelids, and made the beak more narrow.

I recently shortened the flipper joints. Also shortened the kneck, and thickened it. The carapace was completely redisigned.  i am going for a Green Sea Turtle. 
I will  post more pics as i continue to progress.

Time taken: so far i have spent 20 to 21 hours over a seven day period

Materials:
(1)old computer mouse as the base armature.
(2)sculpting tools.
(3)Clay NSP medium sulphur free plasteline
(4)wood skewer sticks.

Special Thanks to:
 Carl Forsythe for giving me the clay and sculpting tools

What is next:
(1) detail head, make underbelly carapace,rear flipper details, smoothing , make coral reef sea weed base.

My Thoughts: i have decided to design it after a Green Sea Turtle. Unfortunately redesigning it for species accuracy has cost me alot of time. I prefer it be as accurate as possible. It may seem like im trying to achieve a illusionary perfection, but  that is not the case i simply want it to be accurate !
