Who Sculpted the Moon's Nose?











Now, the nose!








Pull a hunk of clay out of the bag. It's going to take a little practice to be able to gauge how much clay you'll need to make a nose for whatever size face you're working on, but not to worry, you can always add or subtract to, or from, whatever you have pulled out! Use your hands to begin shaping your clay into a nose. It's going to be triangular shaped, flat backed, very thin at the top. Again, look at your nose in a mirror if that helps.








Use your finger to wet the nose area on the moon and press the nose onto the space. Smooth out the edges with your fingers. Use your tools to put detail into the nostrils and the flesh around the nostrils.
