Tiny troubles...

I'm working on a piece that I am having some trouble with...its a life sized sculpture of Olivia wearing a wolf mask. I just kind of dove right in, forgetting how hard babies/children are to sculpt. I think I'm going to restart the piece (seeing as how my first attempt dried out during the move to our new studio) and this time I'm going to make a few maquettes first. Usually I just get to the piece, working from a model and sketches but I think I need to play around and make a few decisions before I go big. Here's hoping I'll have some time to get to that this week. Just in case here are a few reference images for the wolf mask.
