Mask sculpt feedback

edited April 19 in General
Looking for some feedback on the progress of  this Sculpt. I've never sculpt anything to final detail and I want this one to be the first.i want to cast it in latex, silicone or gelatine as a one piece mostly to learn the whole process, it's meant to be a somewhat realistic but stylized witch.  Thank you!

    You are off to a great start.  Is that Monster Clay?  If so, you can soften the details using heat or brushing them with isopropyl alcohol.   I like to carve in my wrinkles and skin detail through a piece of plastic sandwich bag (ziplock, etc) which creates softer edges.   Then you can start adding smaller details like pores.

    Keep up the great work!

    Thank you Chris. It's Chavant NSP medium.  I tried 99% alcohol and it just didn't have much effect. Watching other videos I tried some mineral spirits which dissolve oil paint and that works great! Following the technics from Normal Cabrera mask sculpt tutorial I was able to smooth and clean up the sculpture a little bit. I am spending WAAAY too much time on this but I am learning so much and it's actually so relaxing! I keep going back and forth on the forms before I start adding skin detail. Here is some progress if there is any on anatomy or anything else.

    This is how I look when I accidentally eat wheat.

    @Darrell Green I guess that's a good thing since would look somewhat "realistic" HAHAHAH :D

    It is a great sculpt, all kidding aside. This is where we go very slowly to get that mold of the original. This is the step that makes me nervous on my projects.
