This statue was carved roughly out of styrofoam with hot wires and other carving tools. then it was sealed and built up with Rosco FoamCoat. I added details (facial features, hat brim, hands, etc) with clay and continued layering with FoamCoat, sanding each layer down smooth. Two layers of CrystalGel were applied to seal cracks, smooth the surface, etc. After a base color, highlights, shadows, and rust detail, I sponged the entire sculpture with Rosco antique gold paint.
