Jim Lee New 52 Bat Cowl Sculpt---FIRST PULLS PG 3!

[Mollins]

I've loved every other cowl I've seen you put out, and I have to say, par for the course here, the cowl looks fantastic!

That's frickin' sweet! Will you be putting these up for sale?

Re: Jim Lee New 52 Bat Cowl Sculpt---WIP

If you wouldn't mind sharing some things about this beautiful cowl (great work btw) I would be extremely grateful.
I assume you cast this with plaster with a plaster bandage mothermold?
Was it a 2 piece? How did you cast it (I.e sloshed casting? And how did you minimise flash lines because I can't see a seam at all?
Any information would be greatly appreciated
Thanks again

I made a two-piece Ultracal mold for this cowl (which is the way I usually do it). I slip cast the latex, usually three coats. There is a seam line, but I managed to have the seam follow some of the edges and/or lines of the sculpt, which helps hide it. I've also had lots of practice at blending seam lines, so I was able to make it less noticeable.

And thanks for the compliments!

Oh wow... never been a huge batsy fan but always said if I did the costume it'd be a comic one not one of the movie suits this is MIGHTY tempting....

 

[timelordjedi777]

Man I just came across this thread, awesome work. I do have a question though. How the hell did you get your clay so smooth?

 

[ZukutoSkyKiller]

thats one of my favorite batman cowl so far. great work.

 

[Murded]

How did you get your sculpt so smooth? Mine has finger marks and is uneven all over the place haha.

 

[Batnismo]
