Harbinger n. one who goes before and makes known the approach of another.
This gentle figure has been very patient with me. As I worked on him - using the newspaper armature process - then covering all with paper clay - he sat there quietly. As his body developed a bit off center, he made not a sound of complaint.
Toward the end of the process -- when a head piece was needed -- I decided that at the very least he deserved a crown.
He also deserved, and got, a colorful set of clothes with a button that looks like it was made specifically for him. I'm looking forward to having him watch over me as a whole new series based on his model come to life. Hopefully each of them will be as patient as he has been.
