Just Keep Following the Heart Lines on Your Hand

The progress won't be as noticeable as I get into more detail and refinement. According to my sculpture teacher, the first 85% of the sculpture is built quickly, but the last 15% of the sculpture will take half of the hours put into it. 68 hours so far, so that means 68 hours to go? Unfortunately the other photos didn't come out very well.

I've also been told it will be any where from $1500 to $2000 to have this sculpture cast in bronze. Even though it's a burden on a starving art student, I feel like what this sculpture represents can only be accurately depicted in the classical bronze.
