Hey everybody. I've been around but this is my first official post. I'm a fan of Hellraiser, and as much as I enjoy the designs of the myriad Cenobites showcased by the many films, both good and bad, That being said, while reading the original novella, THE HELLBOUND HEART by Clive Barker, I couldn't help but notice that the cenobites described in print are vastly different than what appeared in the film. The biggest example of this is the Pinheaded Cenobite. In the novella, Pinhead is unmistakably a female.
Well, based on Barker's original descriptions and my own interest in adding my own slant on the dinizens of Hell, I figured I'd see what I could do with the female version of Pinhead. So starting with a digital concept I made several years ago, I dove in.
This topic will follow my progress as I sculpt, mold and cast a resin bust of the female pinheaded cenobite.
To start, I began roughing out the head using grey sulphur free plastilina over a plastic female mannequin head (you all know the type)
- - - Updated - - -
a bit more refining, locking down the shape of the face...

and now starting the details.... blocking out the gridlines and starting the scarification:
From here the scarification is going to get intense. I'll be posting updates as often as possible. Hope you enjoy!
