POTA inspired Gorilla masks

[Tobor the great]

Thanks to everyone who helped me with mask making. I had a go at making one with some air dry latex. My clay ape face didn't last long as it started to break up after a few weeks, lucky I still have the plaster negative made from the clay. THANKS

I didn't realize that my previous pictures for this thread were sitting on a now-defunct site and so can no longer be viewed... oops.
Anyway, my two gorilla sculpts have been collecting dust for a year while I've been busy with other projects, but now that I'm prepping to start a new gorilla sculpt (perhaps Zako) I've dusted them off and peeled them off the face casts to see what they look like when worn. I'm going with smaller proportions this time around... aiming for a TV-series gorilla. FYI, these are not foam latex appliances - just Sculpey... I was not completely satisfied with them, so plan to foam latex the next sculpt instead. I'll probably use plasticine this time.

This first sculpt I call Maximus


and this second sculpt I call Brutus
