Neanderthal Elf

This was the second time I took my chances with clay modeling (the first one turned really bad). It's up to you to decide what he is. Some think he looks like Gollum. Others say he is a homo neanderthal or an elf (because of the ears). I like to say he is a neanderthal elf. That would do it! I know he looks sad and tired and ready to fall apart, but believe me he had a terrible journey back home. Inside my suitcase with all my clothes and books. And, of course, he is a sensitive clay guy. So there you go...

I wanted to add more detail but I preferred a more abstract look. No, I'm joking. It was difficult and I was lazy. But I like him that way.
