This is the Black Queen from a series of dolls/sculptures I'm making based on the characters from a chess set. She's finished, though I think I'd like to do an embroidered panel of black on silver fabric to replace the center front panel of her corset. But for now since this is due on wednesday, I'll leave it be
The armature underneath is cardboard and wire. The face and hands are sculpey, And the head/neck/shoulders/chest are celluclay. I did a little bit of paper mache with tissue paper over the top of everything. I painted it with acrylic. The clothes are a combination of sewing and gluing different fabrics, the crown is twisted wire/beads
