Modroc and paper mache sculptures

These pictures show the process of making my carousel horses head.
 
I firstly tried to make a paper patter which dint go to plan so I then tried to make a paper mache model of the head. As I used 6 layers of paper mache the head came out quite bulky and I wanted the detail of the horses face so this wasn't suitable for my final product.
 
I then tried using modroc and made a cast of the head which has caught the detail of the face and straps. I am happy with how it has turned out.
Now I will have to think about how to mount it onto a wall displayed in a frame.
