Bat Texan Jim Lee Cowl photos---IN BLUE PG5
Seems like it's taken forever to get to this point, but I finally got the first pull and finished it!
It's not perfect, and I poured it thin, but overall . . . I'll let ya'll be the judge:
The first pull revealed a couple of places I needed to sand better in the mold, so the second pull (in progress now) should look better.
I tried it on, and it's a bit small on my 24" head---makes my cheeks bulge out a bit. My bro-in-law has a 22 1/2" head, so I'll get him to try it on, then I can let ya'll know what size head this will work for.
And yes, I will be posting this in the trade forum in the next day or two, so for those who've been looking forward to one of these, your wait is nearly over!
Thanks for all the comments/critiques, and a special thanks to Uncle Ed---couldn't have done it without your help man!:up

Re: Bat Texan Jim Lee Cowl---FIRST PULL
Holy crap! That is the best looking comic cowl I've ever seen. Now cast it in blue and flock it for that fabric look!
Love the detail around the eyes, and the wrinkles on the brow, geeze, it just looks fantastic!

That is absolutely beautiful. A fine piece. I can't wait to see someone wearing it.
