For my final project in the “Pirates of the World” class here at UMW, I’m making a Blackbeard doll. He’s mostly done, with the (very important) exception of his overcoat, bandolier, pistols, hat, and a couple of other pirate-y things.
After I'd made the shirt.
Made the eyes and cute button nose from Sculpey. You can't see it, but there's a hole running horizontally through each eye, and vertically through the nose so I could sew them on later.
His wig, just after completion. Found a fantastic, really easy method of making yarn …

In addition to the more traditional storyboards, I thought I’d try a photographic approach for a couple of early scenes in my new film.
