Building snail, problems, problems, problems
Hi Guys
Christmas time is here and I have 5 shows. (someone save me!) Ok here is the problem, I have a snail I'm building, I have a nice pattern for the snail body but I don't know how to tackle the shell. I need a suggestion on the kind of shell I should build, I tried to make a pattern but it's not working out well. I'd like to make a molded shell but I don't know where to start or should I go with foam. What to do, what to do. Any suggestions?
