The cast of your face, looks strikingly like the head of the Mummy of Ramses the Second. Just thought I'd let you know. ;>

got the basil gogos mummy on my innerarm .........and work for an egyptian ,....pretty close aye ?


look down there for more progress

VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV
 
make sure you keep that clay moist. don't want cracks to ruin it.

it's hard to tell with your angles. take some pics straight on and in profile. but from what i can tell you got the shapes going good. looks like you are going to make it smaller than the 1:1 heads. which is fine because you probably aren't 7 foot.

ha haha ,.....told ya,......like i said i never saw one in person before......you see these all day ,....ha ha ha

just testing with the paint really ,.....i plan on sanding back down the parts that need it ,....
just seeing if silver with a dust of walnut looks good or not,......
 
Like the head design a lot. Especially the shape of the upper mandibles. Very individual look to him so far. I'm curious to see how the... uhh, tattoos/lettering, come out. Right now, I could go either way with them.

they're probably not gonna stay,....
i don't really sculpt at all so i'm just trying things out too see how to pull them off,....
trying to get smooth kinda " cut-out " things down ,......not really working for me so they'll be gone,.....

i saw the predator alphabet on here somewhere so i might put something like that on him somewhere,.....
i like the things on his upper mandibles,.....just not the ones that are on there,.....ha ha ha

thanks for the input bro,,.......i'm tryin,......it's dog-**** compared to other sculpts on here but,....
i gotta start somewhere,.......

got fiberglass today so i'm gonna get the bio done first ,....
i kinda started backwards because i'm impatient,....
 
can't say i have any advice for the texture. since you are using tera cotta clay, it's a dif consistancy that takes detail differently. maybe try using a moist paper towel to smooth out the harder details. so that your lines aren't so defined. or a sponge

right on thanks,.....
i slopped some thin slag-goop over deep spots ,.....took away alot of the scraped look ,.....
plan on getting it real watery tomorrow and sponging it to death to get it back to the roots
ha h aha ,.....one of them things where i should have just left it alone,.....

oh well,......i'm learnin
 
I like it! Looks very evil and bad ass!!
Keep it up!!


thanks buddy ,....it's slow and tedious but i'd like to think i'm figuring out a few things ..
(( thanks to you guys ))

once i figure out texture i'll see if i can cast this damn thing and see how it looks painted,....
about to start a baby-predator mask for kids,.......
never really seen one so ,...
 
I like it. Kind of looks gargoylei-sh or if Viktor from "Underworld" was a pred.

I'm digging the angular lines and rougher looking texture. Almost like he's a hardened sand blasted desert pred.

all around digging it man. great work.
 
here's how the bio turned out,.....don't know if you can see the lenses but i used metal screen tinted blue,......

don't think i like it,......i need smoked lenses

don't know,.......it works well but it's very thirsty ....


thanks for the compliment buddy,.....i'mma learning
