Broken Lizard

This is a piece of clay work I tried to turn my hand to. It looked alright before it dried, as there were no cracks in it. It was air dry clay and I chose to dry it on the hottest weekend we have had in about 100 years (or so they said). I think the high temperatures and the fact that the few days after that weekend were significantly cooler (due to storms etc), caused it to crack, and also the fact that I had used a wire model to mould the clay around. I still think it looks pretty cool though and I may even get around to finishing painting it.
