I thought it strange that they would only be a foot high.
They will disappear into the long grass.

Re: Making sculptures to go on the Coppice

It's an awful photo, it's the tiny sculpture on the right just on the edge of the grass. This photo is to show those who were worried about what they might be, as in scale and material.

No, but that's my friend she was in the year above me

I would like them to be life size, for obvious reasons as they are figure sculptures.

Re: Making sculptures to go on the Coppice

functional art ha, I like it. I do want to make them life-size, because when I put it down I realized how really really small it was, although it is only a tester piece.

I think I may put a bigger one somewhere else on the coppice in about 2 weeks. While I'm up there, I'll make sure my good camera is fully charged and I will take some proper photos of this 1st one.

See if any of you notice where it is (If you go up the coppice) before I put a photo up :P

Why don't you start with Accy's famous folk? Jeanettte Winterson, Jon Andersen and others...? Then a few of the characters from Accy web....plenty of scope!
