Satan the Soulkeeper

[CreatureCreator]

Hi,

here is a bust i have been working on. It is my concept of what Satan should look. I tried to make him more realistic and scary than the stereotype devil. The hair is actually humans who are starved and climbing on top of eachother. Have almost finished everything besides the hair, some detailing word, still a lot of work i have to put in the hair.

Here are the pictures:

Let me know what you think of it and i will post pictures of the further progress as soon as possible.

Wow! Amazing work! i'd love to see some shots of the back....even if its not all detailed up yet

Those horns are brilliant! Is it inspired at all by the dense hairs that grow on a Rhino's face forming its horn?

 

[chuckyAPP]

Wow.....love the details in the 'hair'. Are you going to paint this too?

 

[chanfan]

That is absolutely awesome! I love the idea of having the "souls of the damned" climbing and holding on to his head. The sculpt itself is simply brilliant!

I love this interpretation of the Devil. It's really hard to come up with something original when so many artists have interpreted a character already, but I think you've got something unique. I really like it.

I love what you did for the hair it looks really cool! How did you get the skin texture down?

 

[DethBecomesYou]

Love the concept. Really nice sculpt. Can't wait to see more. :thumbsup

Awesome!!!!

Only thing I would change (and I mean literally the only thing) would be sharpen the teeth a wee bit. Not shark sharp though, just a little more pointy.

Can't wait to see it finished and painted up!

So, a last here is the update with the finished sculpt, took me alot of hours to finish the hair, but I am pleased with the result. Here are the pictures:

Awesome work!

 

[PotionMistress]

This is just BRILLIANT! Your interpretation and sculpting skill is just about unsurpassable! Wow!

I recently did a large Satan bust myself, (but a completely different take, of course) so this is so fresh in my mind. It's amazing how each artist can create such unique perspectives on the same idea.

Fantastic work indeed! How are you going to display it, if I may ask?

 

[Ruddigger]

What a sick and twisted mind you have. It's great.

 

[Amish Trooper]

Wow! That is fantastic. Look forward to seeing one of these painted up

 

[hydin]

Amazing!!!!

Looks kinda like Anthony Hopkins

Can't wait to see how you are going to paint it up!
