Behemoth Head sculpt from start to finish (tons of progress pictures!)

[LunaticNic]

Hey, this is my 4th time now doing a pred sculpt, I'm sure there will be much room for improvement in the future. I'm doing it start to finish with a ton of pictures, mostly for the sake of people who may be struggling to make their own sculpt for the first time. Also just to advise, I'm not planning on making a movie a curate Pred, this will be one by my own design. The clay that I used for this sculpt is Monsterclay *oil-based clay* .So here are some of the first pictures.

And a few more pictures.

I also just want to note that I sort of tend to jump around in terms of sculpting the head, mostly due to me getting bored working on one area too long. It may not be the professional way, but it works for me

I intend to use a heat gun later on in an attempt too smooth things out and making it fuse a bit.

Thanks allot, I was hoping it would help some people, especially don't get discouraged, here's a picture of my first time ever making a mask.

Well, can't update any more progress for now due to the site being weird and not allowing me to post anything else due to server error :/

Looks pretty darn cool to me. Question though, do you plan on molding this and casting a mask out of it? Or are you doing it just for the fun of it?

[LunaticNic]

Thanks allot! And I'm am planning on molding it. Depending on how the mold turns out, if it turns out good I plan on casting a few.

 

[Unforgiven Hunter]

You might have already planned on doing this, but if not may I make a suggestion? The inside of the mouth, while it looks fantastic as it sits right now once you've cast it and attempt to take the cast out it will rip all that detail off the mold. Reason for this is because the mold material will get behind the little balls of clay creating a bunch of little undercuts. A way to fix this is to make a clay slurry and brush it in between the clay balls.
