Original Eagle

In this photo, you can see how the head was carved out (gutted) because the clay can only be about the width of a thumb. This process is done otherwise air bubbles can cause the sculpture to explode while cooking in the kiln.

This was the intended Eagle head. It is not done in this photo because not much detail besides the eyes and beak are present.

This was the slab of clay that we were planning to use as the Eagle torso. The torso in this picture is facing upright, in the sculpture it was going to be set up facing horizontal.
