For the first time in quite a while, I've actually had the time to sit down and focus on sculpting for a minute. The result, a new variant of Combat Garden Gnome. This version is charging headlong into battle with his bayonet fixed:
As with all of my Combat Garden gnomes, the original was hand-sculpted by me in oil-based clay and then molded to reproduce him in urethane resin. I'm especially proud of his angry little face:
Once the first cast was out of the mold, it was painted with high-gloss exterior paints and deployed in my mother's garden. There he will stay, facing all-comers in the endless battle for lawn dominance:
Meanwhile, work continues on the rest of the castings:
If you'd like one for your very own, you can order them here: LINK
If you're feeling artistic and want to paint one yourself, you can order the unpainted version here: LINK
I've got a couple more sketches in the pipeline, so stay tuned for more Combat Garden Gnomes.

Love it! He is an angry little man for sure!
