Darth Maul bust

[merkava74]

So here's my next project. Got this cast from a long time ago (with some pain).

It's a pretty good face cast of Ray Park.

And here are the horns that came along with them. I custom ordered the eyes from Cantor and Nissel by giving them a photo of Maul's eyes.

And here are the eye holes roughly hollowed out with the eyes taped in.

Had a little bit of time this weekend. Glued the horns in place.

Epoxy puttyed the edges to make it look like it "grew" out of his head.

And added epoxy putty to the insides of the eye, added some soapy water to the eye, and rolled it around, so that the eye sits well in the socket and there are no gaps.

Quite a "menace" haha.

Couldn't resist test draping him while waiting for the epoxy to dry.

Slow and painful process. Patience is the key.

I sprayed the exposed area with a neutral grey, before red, as the red would be tough to show on black.

And here is the result!

Great progress. The tape made him look like Savage Opress.

Decided to rework the hood for a bigger look. This is the final pose.
