Thanos sculpt attempt WIP pics

[KWMarvel]

Hello, KWMarvel here. I just recently finished up a Nova Prime helmet (http://www.therpf.com/f9/nova-prime-helmet-wip-pics-189873/#post2985800) and I figured "wh why not?" and make a Thanos mask from foam latex. I dont have any experience with sculpting, but I have read up a lot on it and this is my first attempt at something like this. I made a bust of my head so it will fit pretty well. I dunno if I should go foam latex or silicone or what. Here are some WIP pics. Will be updating frequently.

Ok guys update!

Added a bunch more details. Made some grooves and wrinkles in his skin and I kind of like of where this is going. Here are some pics.



I have a question though. With the isopropyl alcohol, there is some white residue. How do I go about removing it from the sculpt?

Ok update!! Made a mother mold and pulled the plaster off the sculpt. Spent an hour or THREE cleaning it out with acetone and an old toothbrush. Already on a few coats of latex, and here it is at its current status:

Ok update!!! pulled the latex from the mold and it came out pretty good. Been trimming and getting rid of any bumps I find. Here are some pics of its current status.



I will be painting this thing later today. More pics to follow

It is going to be interesting seeing it worn.

What are you planning to have worn under it?

Looks awesome man. I was wondering, what are you going to attach it to? I made one 2 years ago, and it was VERY crude, because I was just getting into the hobby, but yours looks great.
