Sculpted cow horns

wax horns

These are wax cow horns that I have prepared for casting as I am trying to make jewellery that  serves as decoration for desks and wall unites . My aim for this project is to make a cow statue ornament that has mixed materials of metal and clay. The whole idea around this project came from me wanting to make a cow that only consisted of metal. The idea of casting horns to metal stermed from noticing that the casting flasks at the studio are a bit small to fit the size of the cow I wanted to carve and sculpt. The idea i have to the conclusion to make is a clay cow with metal horns.

This would my ideal size when it comes to my sculptural statue or ornament 

 These are my reference for the shapes and sizes of horns.
