Finally, after years of contemplating it, but never jumping in… the Ten Sleep Library has decided to enter a float in the 4th of July Parade. What better year than the 250th anniversary?
My job entails a bald eagle…
Hmmmm. After much debate, I decided to make the base out of cardboard. I cut out the basic shape and glued it with flour paste. It actually is pretty strong! I will have to grind down some areas and most likely add to others.
The talons will be facing forward… and I made some claws out of clay.
I think they look pretty good. But let’s break out the paint!
I’m very happy with the talons! I’m hoping the body of the eagle turns out as well.
Find me here!
