skin folds from grainy grout

As the new brown, sandy plaster slowly dried (which I read on the bag can take up to 72 hours....) I decided to start the carve the wall so that they gave a skin folding and hanging effect.

The movement and coverage of the plaster gave me ideas on how to sculpt the skin and using a blunt kitchen knife, some sand paper and a brush it started to take shape.
