A Sculpture, by me?

I'm awful at sculptures, and I've had several attempts to confirm this.
I find them interesting, but have always lacked the ability to take an idea from the two demensional drawing to the real world.

As a part of a different classes' project, I created this sculpture.

It's an elephant, if you're curious. It isn't supposed to be realistic, in fact I meant to add several more segments to the legs before calling it complete, but as a bad sculptor I feared for the structural integrity of it should I add more (it isn't the most stable thing).

It is a photograph/sculptural representation of my fondness of Salvador Dali, which I found ironic because of DTC 477 I am doing a recreation of a Dali piece.

This one is a homage to this Dali piece:

As you can see my legs were not nearly long enough!

Just posting for the enjoyment of others, I thought that this was an interesting way to combine two mediums (photography and sculpture) to express an admiration of an artist.

The sculpture is made out of empty plastic bottles, if you're interested. The paint on the board is supposed to be splotchy.
