Nice work, fettster, that's a very realistic sculpt which I think crosses the 'uncanny valley'. If I didn't know better I would think it were a cast of Vin Diesel (taken with his eyes open, somehow).

btw, I once ran into Vin Diesel in a park. Yeah, he looked just like that.

Re: Riddick bust wip

Now that is a stunning likeness, so brilliantly captured!

One thing I've always wondered is how "you" create your moulds from a clay sculpt without ruining it in the process. By this I mean how you attach the fencing and so forth. I've seen people spray the sculpt with auto lacquer, then once dried build up the wall/fence up and over the top of the piece, while others have simply pushed pieces of plasticard directly into the sculpt itself. Surely this must have some adverse affect to all that hard work.

If you took pictures of you prepping and making your mould, I for one would be very interested in seeing how you did it, as I am sure others here would be too.

Please keep up this great work and thanks for sharing the fruits of your skills with us.

Pretty epic bud! Wish I had the time and energy to try my hand at a bust. Little to out of my league.
