Glad you enjoyed it. I think the quality of photos are more to do with my son's expensive camera than my photographic skills :)

Thanks, Steve, you are very kind, but I need to know how you guys do it lol the red I see in your silicone Ripley evades me as does the application. I'm looking forward to finishing my Kyle then I can try a 'normal' skin paint job.

looks good but can make it better if you break up the colors more for morenatural look with an air brush some color washes an a tooth brush to do spaceling
 
Thank you, so much, for the step-by-step guide. The sculpt is amazing and now we can all do it justice!

The dull cote/pastel interaction phenomenon is well- known and seems to vary by brand and even by color. Some shades darken a little and some, as you noted, almost disappear. I have had really good luck with the Prismacolor brand of pastels.
Thanks, again and here is another beg for a Linda Hamilton/Sarah Connor companion piece for Kyle!

You are right of course and I am still learning. I have tried the spattering technique before without much success, but will keep trying.

Wow very impressive !!!!! Wish paint you use to simulate the blood ?

The guide does tell you what colours I used... blood was Tamiya Red and Tamiya Clear red.

Thanks. I've not done any sculpting for over a year now. If I did a Sarah it would likely be a T2 Sarah as I don't find the T1 Sarah very interesting.
 
Amen, brother! That T-2, Sarah Connor-bound clay is calling to you: "Alaneye, Alaneye…"[emoji6]
