Hmm, some drugstores/chemists carry it for fairly reasonably prices. Not too smelly either, when you vent your room enough. But then again, it misses that clean smell of lemon

I guess this is a bit of a critique, so if you want to tell me to shove it, cool. I was checking out your latest P2 photos, and the neck is really standing out to me and looks just a tad small/out of proportion circumference-wise. Could just be me and my gym-rat, thick-neck mentality, though, so, again, "SHOVE IT" is perfectly acceptable.
Loving the texture on it, though!

Brad, totally happy for people to point stuff out thats relevant like that, having said that i honestly think its the angles i have taken the photos from, the neck itself is over 21inches in circumference. ( i know thats nothing to do with the question hehe, but gives you a idea how big the head is )
I think the side on pics give a better angle on the necks dimensions compared to the rest of the sculpt.
also the neck is purposely quite LONG in this ( i realised its easier to get up and under the chin to detail etc ) so that is possibly giving the illussion of a thin neck. when i start moulding, the mold will probably start about 2.5 -3 inches UP from the bottom of the neck. hope that makes sense and thanks for the crit.

Upon analysis of the screencaps, screen-used, etc., and having read your reply regarding the purposefully lenghtend neckline, I agree and retract my earlier comment, hehehe...

So I was thinking the same thing about the Thickness of the neck. But if it is 21 inchs around that is pretty damn big. Makes me wonder how big the head is as a whole.
This is gonna be great when its finished!
If you are up for a trade, I will send you a copy of mask when I finish the Mold.
Great job bud. Looks Pissah.

i agree the neck does look thin from some angles, i guess i have the bonus of seeing it in real life.
Gene sorry im not trading anymore, im cutting back on my stuff, this will be my 8th pred head, not sure i need anymore lol.
Eyebrows are next on the tweaking list after the dreadholes, at this point i think accuracy is becoming a issue, as every photo of the P2 the head is twisted or distaughted alittle by animatronics etc.
so i am just going to pick a picture i like i go for it ( as Rob says )
but if anyone sees anything major on the eyebrows please point it out.

looks great man. cant decide what i like better, the open or closed mouth Predators. i am getting and open mouth one soon from a friend and own and old one which is also open. but i think i am leaning toward the closed , makes the Predator look confident and ready for anything.
very cool sculpt.

Lee - All I would say on the eyebrows is what I have said in the past: they are a tell-tale of the expression you are going for as an artist. So, for whatever feeling you are trying to convey, keep that in mind. Perhaps swipe your wife's make-up mirror (Portable, if she has one) and sit it next to the sculpt so you can make faces into it for reference. Or hell, just make faces into it if you get frustrated (In lieu of stabbing all your tools into the sculpt, as you have done in the past)!

Awesome sculpt so far Lee, love seeing your work. As far as any critiques and you mentioned about the eyebrows. The only think I see is on the bottom of the eyebrow [right above the eye], it looks like it curves up and from what I see in the reference section, it's more straight [below is a pic from the reference section that I was talking about]. It may just be the angle of the pic, but that's the only thing I see.
Just a quick question. In your last pic post on the second pic down, right behind the three small dread holes there are 4 horizontal lines. Just curious, is that a personal touch or is it on the movie. Just curious.
