First cowl sculpt.

[Spiderdude321]

Hey all new here. Started this about a week ago this is my 1st attempt at sculpting anything. I wanted to modernize the Adam west look and this is what I came up with so far . Any tips on anything would be appreciated and what's best for smoothing monster clay out? Thanks all.

It's looking really good. What kind of clay are you using?

 

[Spiderdude321]

Thank you and Im using Monster clay

I love Monster Clay!! That's what I use.

 

[Spiderdude321]

Yeah it seems to form nicely. Any tricks to get it as smooth as possible?

Looks great! I love the Adam West suit and really looking forward to seeing how this sculpt comes out.
I've never worked with Monster Clay, but it seems like the most common method of smoothing sculptures is with solvents, à-la Naphthalene, lighter fluid, isopropyl alcohol or paint thinners, and a firm-bristled brush.

Awesome project!

Thanks I love the Adam west suit too and thanks for the knowledge I'm gonna work out a few kinks and try the smoothing hopefully some progress updates soon

Keep us updating on the molding and casting process. As a first-timer myself, I'm curious about the process....

 

[Spiderdude321]

Thanks guys. I will be doing molding and casting updates soon I found a few uneven spots after my smoothing so I'm working that out. Updates soon though!!

Long time no see everybody. Somewhat an update I guess. Due to size fitment issues and a few other things I was unable to complete this project. But I have restarted in a new form ..learning Zbrush. Not the best I'm sure but it's a start.
