Classical head

I decided it was time to do a little rescue work on a large clay head I had made (8 times life size) in the general style of a classical male. It was originally designed lying nearly prone, in a kind of sleeping pose, but was never cast in that pose.
I moved it back to the upright to try and remove some of the staining from slip (quite a bit of ceramic work goes on nearby!) before casting. The background on the final picture was processed in Gimp, and I seem to have accidentally bent the aspect ratio a little.
