Jaw & Chin Transition in Wax Sculpture

Video Transcript

"Now we've done some work around the lips and we've done, refined this area here and we have refit this area here, but one of the areas that we haven't worked on is this little area in here. It's kind of a transitional area and so on you your figure as we've been carving this became a little harsh so what I'm going to do is just come back in here with my carving tool and just kind of smooth this down flatten it out a little bit bring it to the same level as everything else so that's it's not out of balance it doesn't look too unnatural. So just kind of this is a smoothing just try to bring the chin so it is not too extreme in the area under the lips and where this line fades out, this line right here so we're just going to smooth this out a little bit from the back towards the front and around that area along both sides. Just a refinement of the shapes around the lips and actually this would be a good time for a little spoon tool rather than a thing because what I'm dealing with is a convex shape. You can use all kinds of tools you can use butter knives, kitchen knives and I even sometimes use a screwdriver but my favorite tool obviously is a razor blade."
