Finished...

Well, I'm glad that's done.

I was looking forward to using wire but didn't enjoy it by the end. I'm going to have a break from it before deciding what to use for my final outcome. I don't want this piece to put me off.

Despite everything, I'm pleased with how it turned out. I've taken some photos from dynamic angles to make the gesture look more expressive. I used a still from a video for reference.
