These past few days I've been sneaking in the garage when my wife and son are fast asleep.
I cast a new Ruble head and made a special armature part that will allow the cast head to lock onto the foam latex body. I melted it directly into the center of the head to get the wax flowing and hardening over the head armature and it seems nice and secure.
I also plopped in a pair of new eyes. I drilled them out and painted the dark areas, but need to make the light color next. When it's done it will appear exactly the same as Ruble and his all-clay body.
After I finish this I'll need to make a pair of long arms that will be mounted in front of the camera, and I might have to find an old rig I built to animate the camera as well. I'll post more info on that when the time comes. But I'm starting to make progress again!
