rooster sculpting

ive recently picked back up a project i started well over a year ago: sculpting a figure. it has been a REALLY long time since i sculpted, but i really enjoy it. this young rooster is (or will be) the 'main' character a series of short, illustrated storybooks i intend to create

the figure is about 6" tall to the top of his head, sculpted in Castilene on top of a simple armature. The hat and sword are separate parts. Somehow (i think when i moved to my current apartment) I lost his right arm...which is annoying

anyway, here are some work-in-progress shots. im hoping i can have him done by the end of july so i can start figuring out a molding/casting strategy
