This Eggshell Drifter is another sculpture I made for my Art Exchange, an art-for-art trade-off I organized with other amatuer artists online. I got a nice illustration for this guy.
The Eggshell Drifter evolved from a simple idea, of a sort of lizard guy who never fully came out of his shell. But as I evolved the sculpt, I added boots, and a hat, and eventually saw that this was no stationary critter- this was a drifter.
This is a real eggshell. I think I went through three or four eggs before finally figuring out how to empty, wash and punch holes into the shell without just shattering the whole thing.
Eggshell Drifter is an older piece, but I've always been fond of him.
