Will start the jaw. In oder to keep the skull at a downhill angle. Will need to make the jaw so it will sit that way. The only issue I can see with this is the jaw might come out looking to big. So I will try to make it in such a way for everything to work out and look right. Don,t really know at this point how I'am going to go about doing that. Will have to figure it out as I go along.

Will set the skull in the position it will be in when the jaw is in place. And start form there.

I thought the jaw would be kind of easy. However it is proving to be otherwise. It looks like it will trun out to be to big and massive looking. Also the skull will be to high. So I will need to lower the jaw hight and start over.

John,
Sorry I haven't been here to check in on what is obviously to be one of your finest yet! It looks so good even now!!!!! I am so in awe of your creativity in using the nails and welds to such a way to sculpt such a beautiful work of art! Bravo, my friend and will try to look in more often!

I been sitting looking at the jaw. And thier are two things I don,t like about it. One, It seems to be to concaved. (inside roundness) Also. The rear is still not rounded enought. So will change those two things.

Bruned off back of jaw again. and will make it more rounded. Also I see that it being concaved looks right after all. Because the rear, which was not right. Made to whole thing look not right. But by doing this it makes the skull want to fall backwards. So will add a little structure inside the rear, which will be unseen, to make the skull stable.
