Re: My Version of Mason Verger
Thank you so much guys !
Darell Green, I sculpted the piece on my actors face so the nostrils fitted perfectly. The pieces was deadend at 120% so it was nice and soft aswell.

Re: Turkey neck process and product question
The stretch and stipple effect would produce smaller tighter wrinkles and not the look of looser hanging skin that you get with aging on the neck. You can give it a try and see how your own neck responds to see, as the effect will differ from person to person based on their skin. It can get kind of close, but for the much loser hanging skin, you can really only go with an appliance. There are places out there that sell pre-made neck appliances in silicone, foam latex, or prosaide transfers. So that might be an option if you don't wish to make your own.

Re: PIRAHNA 3D/3DD sculpt..
Sculpt is looking good! I find a set of calipers really helps when trying to match a reference to insure the same spacing between features.

Great White alternate materials???
If ya'll remember a few months ago i did a sculpting of a Great White shark head..i did a test casting in resin and it came out malformed and misaligned..backed it with foam and its quite heavy....wondering for a wallmount to sell if maybe i should do it in urethane rubber or silicone with foam backing??? KONG came out pretty well as a urethan rubber/foam backed piece...but a little nervous to try it with a piece like this that has a bit of a "hangout/ hangover"
Did a test paintup to see how it might look...i am motivated enough to correct the defects and try remolding it as a one piece to eliminate the seams...
want to maybe get a more "professional" opinion..

Re: Great White alternate materials???
Resin should be fine for it. My question is how did it deform? Sometimes the weight of casting material or expanding foams can put pressure on a mold and deform it, but that can usually be solved by providing proper support with the rigid outer mold.
Rotocasting would be a possible option to keep weight down. You would mix up small batches of resin and rotate the mold around to build up thin layers, leaving a hollow form that can then be backfilled with foam, or even strengthened with more resin and fiberglass.
The paint job looks awesome!

I noted that my Revenant build post was taking a long time to load all the pictures so I made smaller ones to post here. These are some extras that I made just for fun. In the donut pic, I am on the right.

Re: Waxxed thread/fake sinew screen color matching
He was seriously ahead of his time with his use of the selfie remote..... 
Not only did this remote need to be facing the camera, it was practically in need of being exactly 90 degrees to the sensor in vertical and horizontal. It was touchy to the extreme and guaranteed it would be in the photo. I have sworn to purchase the radio remote where I can tap it with my toe or hide it in my hand completely. This, in-line-of-sight, infrared is off my list of tools, after this build.
