Hello there. Hopefully I read correctly and am posting this in the right location. I have been lurking about for some time now scoping out everyone's stuff and a must say amazing work. I am now starting my first predator build and If I can come through with even a percentage of the quality I have seen on the lair I will be ecstatic. I have done quite a bit of reading on this forum as well so hopefully I shant make any noob mistakes. At least I hope..... Anyway, this suit shall be for my sister. Who is 5'1" by the way....so yea....8 feet shorter than your standard predator. First question: How should one go about making sure the proportions are right? Should I undersize the mask? Oversize the armor? And also what are some standard dimensions to aim for in a sculpt for a mask?
Second question: I am sculpting on a head maniqun that is on a stick that is in a couple of pieces of 2x6 wwod. Now I am about to do the neck. Can the clay go all the way to the wood so the sculpt is essentially sitting on the wood? I am worried that it will some how interfere with the molding process...perhaps I think to hard about easy things....
Ok I suppose I shall post my progress pictures. I got my clay a couple of days ago and I started layering on the clay. This is the first time for me sculpting not digitally so advice from you pros is recommended.
