In February of 2021, I felt Nebthet's gentle nudging, that she'd like some artwork, as pieces of her are so rare.. I was hesitant, as I'd sculpted a Set head by hand, but felt
nervous to attempt a more 'human' face. But the rarity made the effort worth the attempt, so..... Julia suggested I do a cut-away version, rather than a round one, so that her face and crown could have greater detail. I adapted Wikipedia's Nebthet (Nephthys) profile so that it had better proportions. Then I had Shapeways make the base, 130.6 mm tall, 95mm wide and 4mm thick.
