Well, there's no doubt the whole thing did not go as smoothly as I had
hoped, but I was pleased with how the model looked (while it was fully
intact). More importantly the client was pleased with it (pleased enough
that they agreed to buy it).
Obviously it was a shame that it ended up damaged, and that certainly
won't encourage any follow up business. A longer timeframe would have
helped, and likely I should have tried harder to MAKE more time for gluing.
Just goes to show that even after four years there things to be learned
in sculpting.
