Lost City of Atlantis: Installing the Queen in Her Throne, Part II

Yesterday, we revealed a few sneak-peak photos of the Queen of the Lost City of Atlantis. I thought those images were all I was going to receive, but Foots surprised me this morning and sent me several more.

In this batch, there are more photos of the finished product, as well as a few photos of the Queen-in-progress, which gives a sense of how he assembles the whole she-bang. Very cool. Check 'em out!

First, he cast the Queen's face. Then he cast the throne. Finally, Foots has to put all the pieces together and place her on her throne. Here she is, in situ, but unfinished.Unfinished Queen

And a wee bit closer. Talk about barrel-chested...

Unfinished

And from another angle. Note that the face, the hands, and the feet are pre-cast. The rest is just a blob.

After he fills in her torso and legs, he colors the finished product a dusky orange that shows up underwater (at least until the coral covers it).

And another view.

Here's a close-up of the Queen's feet. Maybe next week, he'll cast the cat.feet

And here's a close-up of the Queen's folded hands. hands

Finally, here's a nice close-up of the Queen. Is she smiling? Is she speaking? Is she singing? What do you think?face

Remember, Foots plans to announce the Queen's identity at DEMA next week. Who could she be?

If you've gotten this far, and you have no idea who Foots is or what this project is all about, be sure to check out the rest of the photos of the Lost City of Atlantis. Additionally, listen to Divester's interview with Foots.
