Work in progress.
I first took some foil and shaped it into what pose I wanted Kai to be in, I then inserted a long thin bolt up through the base up into the head to support the neck.
Only used heat resistant materials inside as once completed it will be baked in an oven for 15min.
Then Using Super Sculpey, covered the foil bit by bit building it up into the desired shape and then sculpted for about 7 hours up to now.
The pony tail is still to be made and added and also some more detail is still to be added. Once baked and hardened I will then attempt to paint it. (gulp)
Work in progress pics of where I'm up to.

Thank's for your vote of confidence, I feel better now. Got the plaited pony tail done today and was just starting to add his eyebrows and other details when worky things stepped in and stopped me, so I'm working all day tomorrow and it won't be until Sunday that I can get back to it.
I'm really enjoying making it it's rather relaxing and I am listening to Lexx music at the same time, oh yes and having the occasional glass of wine, gota go the whole hog and really enjoy myself.
Touch wood if it continues to go ok I'm making Zev next then Xev (dont know which Xev to make red head or long blond hair ????? Stans next after that and then 790, I've got to a have the whole set, who knows I might make the rest of the cast as it can get rather addictive.
Any hoo this is where I got up to before I was stopped, the back view and something to show scale because veyron asked how big it was, used a 10 pence coin, sorry if some of you don't know how big a 10 p coin is, it's the only thing I could think of.....someone on the forum will probably know how big it is in comparison to say a Silver Dollar and say.... hope so.

 Tar very much Ketana .. think the reason it's going sorta ok is I really wanted a “Kai” something and I was determined to get it somehow, we have all this merchandise from other TV shows and movies that I hardly like and nothing from one of my favourite TV shows, suppose what ever we produce from Lexx it kinda makes it more special.

| Great job with the braid too, and quite the ambitious project to do all the characters!
