This began way back in May, near the end of my last school year, i was fiddling with clay one day trying to think of something , i thought of NiGHTS and how much i loved him, AND how no body ever makes him out of clay! (except for one time on ebay...) so i decided to challenge myself and make nights. i tried to make him, but he became deformed and mishapen. then roughly a month later i tried again with a bit more success. but a few months later i became unsatisfied with it, so i sculpted over the the parts i didnt like. it looked better but when late october came i again became unsatisfied with it and broke and scraped off anything i didnt like. I remade, remolded, resculpted over what was left of the sculpture with sculpey clay like i did in the beginning, and now hes finally finished!! From all the off and on times ive worked on this id say it would be equal to that of 2-3 weeks! ive never worked on anything more harder. and the BIGGEST pain in the ass to finish was the diamond on his chest, i just couldnt get the shape right, but after an hour of cutting and trying i finally got it
(i forgot to ment that i made the diamond shiny using super glue, but you cant really tell with the pic... an I KNOW, I KNOW, the jewel is too big... it took forever to get it in the right shape, and i got frusterated and just left it alone when i got as close to it as i wanted. sorry... maybe ill fix it one day...)

LORD knows how many times hes been broken, shattered, fallen apart, mishapen, deformed, remolded, resculpted, glued, and rebuilt. i lost count long ago! but now its all paid off!! So far this the BEST sculpture ive made with sculpey. the tools i used were my hands and two different clay knives for smoothing, and getting the really tight places. I love this, man! Inspiration for this comes mostly from the fact that hardly anyone ever makes nights by clay, the rest came from alot of people on the nights site and TRIPPY. (astrima)

Thanks for looking everyone!!

UPDATE: (over a year later...)
