Getting Our Parts In Check!!


Ok, here is where I stand. I have finished sculpting and shaping the mouth and I have sculpted the eyebrows and tongue. These need to have a final sanding and then I will make a mold of each and then cast them. ( The tongue needs a little more shaping. It's not what I'm looking for yet!)
These photo's gives us an Idea of what he might look like when the mechanics are installed! Well, off to the mold making and casting process, then the installation of the mechanics!

Moving Ahead On The Mouth!!

I have the mouth shaped and fitted into the head and I am working on the teeth now. This all takes a lot of time and this is the reason I usually mold and cast the mouth! It's a big time saver for future figure making!!


As you can see, a nice tight fit with minimal gaps. Here are a few photos with the mouth open. It gives you an idea of what he might look like with teeth.







If you have noticed there is no tongue in the mouth, well I have decided to put in a stick out tongue! The tongue will be made separately.
Well, back to the teeth! I feel like a dentist! I wish I was paid like one!
