Doctor who Davros mask attempt #2

Hey all as some of you may or may not know sometime last year I did a sculpt of Davros from the newer series of Doctor who. Quite frankly I was never 100% happy with it as it looked way undersized and since I cast it in latex it is extremely stiff and doesn't breath at all. Here are a few photos of where the sculpt stands today. There will be a lot more detail in this one as apposed to the last and it also will be made into a silicone or plat gel mask this time around.
Any input or critiques are welcome as always.
 
Thanks for the Kind words!
I have actually changed the sculpt just a little bit in hopes that I am slowly making it more accurate. I worked quite a while last night and some of today to get his eyes, cheek bones, and mouth closer to the screen worn piece.
Please let me know your thoughts and suggestions.
Also I am posting this photo in color and in black and white as well.
The reason for the B&W photo is to make the clay look more uniform and hopefully bring out a bit of the detail.
 
Hi,

That's a lovely sculpt. When you say it's the Davros from the newer series, I assume you mean the Julian Bleach version? If that's the case, I feel that the mouth is not turned down at the corners enough and the chin needs to be a little more prominate. Finally the nose might need to be a bit more hooked but it's difficult to tell from the angle of the photo. I must say though that you've captured McKinstry and Gorton's idea of basing Davros's appearance on the original Michael Wisher version very well.
 
A small update here. I pretty much have everything that I needed to do finished before making my moulds. I will include two photos but I didn't realize how odd the front view came out I keep forgetting the six foot rule when taking sculpture photos.
 
After some time off from sculpting and dealing with domestic junk here at the house I finally have a few photos to show for my latest re work. In my opinion I think this is the closest that I have ever gotten to the on screen make up and hopefully I am right.
I did not take any side photos just yet since I am still doing some detailing work so please forgive that. Thanks for looking and as always any and all feedback is appreciated.
