Clay Characters!

"Isiac"

the iPhone

i used my iPhone as the object i was making the character from.

the iphone is an apple product so i thought id make isiac holding an apple.

as i was finished making him, i decided he didnt need a face, because not only is there no where to put one but also, when you press the button on the iphone it lights up and like comes to life, so i figured id leave the face to the audiences imagination.
