***EDIT***
Almost ready for the furing process. I just gotta do some more painting, then I can start the furing process.
We'll see how it goes.
***END EDIT***
Like many of you who preorderd the SideShow King Kong armature back in Dec '05 many things have caused it to be delayed, but it is now almost coming to being a reality and it will be delivering soon. I can't wait for mine to arrive, and it will be one of my greatest museum display pieces..
From the word go I wanted a full fured out static puppet statue based off the armature's measurments to display with it. I set out to start a prototype head sculpt based off the skull over a year ago, I got frustrated with delays of it coming out and I lost interest in doing it. Now that it is coming back into reality of arriving soon I started my prototype back up again.
I first started by baseing a sculpt of a skull I made from scratch based on the real skul, I know it is off a little bit in proportions, but it was going to give me an idea if I could pull it off or not, so I wasn't going crazy with it being dead on.
Here are the new pics of the sculpt in progress, I've got about an hour into it.
I gotta wait until the AVE's epoxy putty is hardend more before I can continue. The flash has kind of washed some of the detail out. I still have a ways to go yet.
The face may be a little too long, but that will change when I get the real thing in my hand and have a 3D refereance in my hand to base the skull off of.
If it all goes well, I do plan on making a few of these static puppets, depends on how many I can get out of one rabbit fur coat. Each head will/may be a custom sculpt and fully fured with rabbit fur. Please no in PM's or inquiries of this please, it is just a thought for now and I gott to see how this goes.
LMK what you think so far of my progress.
