CREATING A VISION FOR WHAT I HOPED WOULD BE A MASTERPIECE.
GETTING DOWN AND DIRTY THE GRUELING PROCESS OF MAKING STUFF.

The piece is not as heavy as I initially thought it might be, that's perhaps because pine wood is light and the process of carving probably removes half the weight in wood chips. It will be heavier with paint and varnish of course. I'm looking forward to seeing the the final piece soon.
A paper template was made which acted as a gauge for the size and shape of the final piece..
The template was then used to draw the shape on several pieces of wood cut to length.
The wood was trimmed to produce the basic wooden shape.

This is a question I asked myself a lot during the build process. It was a slow and painstaking process, in the summer, where I carved all the wooden pieces by hand, in a small flat, during lockdown.
The antennae, or feelers, are found on the head just above the eyes. Generally, butterfly antennae (left) are 'clubbed', meaning that they are long and thin in the middle but end in a thicker lump, kind of like a golf club. The antennae are not fuzzy or feathery, but look more like wire.
