bobcat eyes

Submitted by Todd on 1/23/06 at 2:27 PM. ( ) 65.245.13.218

I completed my first bob cat about eight days ago. It turned out pretty good for my first one. I've been watching it as it dries and there is a space/gap in the inside corner of each eye that has appeared. It's enough that you can see the clay.(1/16" to 1/8") What can I do? use epoxy sculpt? Thanks for any suggestions.

At this point I'd say it's your best option. The other option would be to rehydrate this area with a wet towel, and rework the eyelids.

I think I'd better stick with the epoxy sculpt, it seems like an easier fix. I'm affraid to rehydrate due to my low experience level. What went wrong? Did I not turn the eyes far enough? or flesh the face thin enough? Thanks for you help.
