NEW P-1 CLOSED MOUTH FINISHED!

[Mannowar]

Well, here it is. This is the first casting all painted up. I threw on some my new dreads and filled out the underneath with backer rod so you can get an idea of what it looks like when he's all dressed up. Wish I'd had some nice eyes to put in but just haven't had time to get out and get any. The mold turned out very clean, though it was a BITCH to get off the sculpt without damaging it, but fortunately patience prevailed. I'll do a 3 piece mold the next time, and split it down the back. I made the dread holes big enough to accommodate 'Booie dreads and I also built up a ridge along the back of the neck where it will be slit to wear. I did this to minimize tearing the latex beyond where you want it to split. Let me know what you think... This one (minus the dreads) will likely be up in the Members Buy and Sell section in the next day or two, so if you're interested keep an eye out.

alright!!! beautiful job as always scott!!.....you finally listened to lee and moved to a headpiece... ...it was worth the push...bud .. we all knew you would do a headpiece it was the natural progression...very very nice!!

 

[Mannowar]

Thanks guys... Yeah Ted, Lee's oft urgings that I graduate from hands, feet and armor and get my ass moving on a head was actually a motivation to get me rolling. Now that this one's done, I'll likely start pushing clay on an Elder in a couple weeks.

 

[Usurper]

yay, who said nagging gets you nowhere

oh yeah Carl

look forward to seeing more pred heads from you

 

[Mannowar]

yay, who said nagging gets you nowhere

No, no Lee... I said "urging." Nagging has been scientifically proven to be a gene trait only found in women and small children I'm pretty sure I read that in Newsweek.

 

[Usurper]

cool. thank god for that

 

[pdisc]

Kickass job Scott

 

[Garo Predator]

[carlart]

Great job Scott! I hate to agree, but Lee's right.

awesome work man the paint up is awesome to cant wait to see you do a wolf mask lol

 

[batmanvspredator]

super nice cant wait to try one on

 

[Mannowar]

Thanks all! Figured I'd also update on another mask, since I haven't posted the progress photos yet in a new thread, but the new Elder I've been working on is just about ready to start detailing. I'll have a thread up in a few days. A true closed mouth (jaw fully closed, exposing no inner mouth)... He's looking quite menacing so far... He'll be kind of a hybrid between the P2 elder and the AVP elder, but leaning a bit more toward P2.

RJ, I'll probably get started on your "special" paintup on the the P1 this weekend...

 

[batmanvspredator]

**** yea. My wifes actually getting pretty pumped up about it.
