Thor and the Midgard Serpent's armature fabricated to hold the battle pose

This image exhibits Thor restraining the Midgard Serpent by the cranium fin/wing. The pose is a fairly accurate; however, I may alter it after I had time to digest the stance.

The rear view… Thor’s hand will be revised once I figure out what he will actually be holding on to.

The Midgard Serpent’s head fins will be adapted to flow with the action.

The Midgard Serpent’s body will undertake the clay up within the next few days.

The Midgard Serpent is large enough to consume poor Thor… LOL…. (moremagic/Mike) one of my ustream.tv viewers declared that the composition is making it look like Thor is the villain.

My wife is taking pleasure in the serpent’s disposition.

Here you can see the green garden hose, which will be covered in clay soon.

Midgard Serpent sculpture update

Today I spent time modeling the Midgard Serpent's head. It was broadcast on http://www.ustream.tv/channel/tutorial%3A-how-to-sculpt-in-clay---artistsculptor from noon to about 6:30 PM PST.

It looks like Leonard my apprentice recieved a fright from the serpent. Leonard is the little guy wearing the beret.

The head needs several more passes in order to capture the correct somewhat likeness of a moray eel. Right now I am not sure if I will add fins/wings to the head area. However, Brozar a regular viewers thinks I should.

The eyes pictured are temporary until I insert the clay eyeballs. Since I want the Midgard Serpent staring at Thor, I will create the iris and pupil with a highlight.

The teeth at this point seem a bit too small; therefore, I will add length to them.

Images of the (wip) work-in-progress for the Thor bronze sculpture

The helmet wings were given an update, the previous wings did not flow with the action.

Here you can see the detail that went into the helmet. Thousands of dimples, created in order to emulate a forged helmet.

Thor's mighty hammer used to summon the thunder!

Detail image showing Thor's torso. The loincloth still may need some additional work.

This image shows some of the detail that went into the legs and sandals.

Thanks to the viewers on ustream.tv I was able to create a cape that works with the Thor sculpt. Thanks guys!

The Thor model was put together for this photo shoot. The cape, helmet wings; braids are being held together with pins.
