I wanted to try starting this project in my head of making a GLaDOS sculpture out of clay. Took a bunch of reference screenshots, gathered up my materials and was raring to go!
Then I sat at my desk for nearly 2 hours straight just fiddling with the clay and wires before finally coming to the extraordinary conclusion that I have no idea how I'm gonna go about sculpting this. xD I've never sculpted anything remotely robotic in my life, let alone a robotic figure at the size I want it to be (I'm aiming for dimensions of 10" x 6" x 6" or something along those lines). A big sculpt is gonna need a lot of details to be more realistic, and my hands are blatantly disobeying my brain when I yell at them to just try it and see what happens. Dx Rawr.
So in a last-ditch effort to make my 2 hours of ruminating appear less pointless, I made a little GLaDOS. She's a little warped cause I accidentally forgot her in the oven for a few minutes Baked, but no cake! :< but oh well. I also need to practice painting with a more steady hand. xP There's another obstacle I need to figure out sooner or later... How am I going to make a display base for the planned big sculpture? It'll look odd for all those wires to just kinda taper off like some kind of tail. o_o;
Sculpted with super sculpey clay, wire, acrylic paints and black thread. About 3 inches tall. The brass hanger's actually supposed to go with a hanging hummingbird figurine, but hey it works for her too!
GlaDOS! <3 congracts, you deserve cake for this masterpiece! hrm... as for the wires tapering off.. i guess you could do the big white bits that actualy say Glados on them, to cover up where the wires disapere too.. but waather that would look better or worse.. i dont know XD

Thanks for the comment! For this particular sculpture, I baked then painted it. The super sculpey that I buy in bulk is a beige/pinkish color. Super Sculpey III comes in a multitude of colors but they're sold in smaller packages.
One thing is for sure. You will never look at cake, 3D cubed mathematical figures, or the words 'Are you still there?' the same way. Ever.

Get your creative juices flowing and design a movie poster for "Paper Heart" that focuses on the theme "What Does Love Mean to Me?".
