Steampunk Batman Cowl---FIRST PULL PG 3!


Last fall, a friend named John Roman picked up one of my Gotham by Gaslight cowls. He's very happy with it (and still working on the suit to go with it), except for one thing: it's made to fit a 24" head, and he has to pad it a bit to fit his 23" head. A few months ago, he decided he really wanted a cowl that was made for him, so he commissioned me to make him a Steampunk Cowl, based on this version:

And now I'm far enough along on the sculpt to show it off:

I just got the wrinkles added, so there's still some work to do. Instead of a leather texture, I'll be going for some type of heavy cloth texture---at this point I haven't decided for sure. I'm about ready to start playing with textures and see what I can come up with.

Grrrrrrrr. Damn pinheads, LOL.

It does look stunning though. You gonna sculpt it with the goggles? or sculpt some as an accessory? I just love your work. :up

I've loved this cowl since I've seen it and glad that you are making it..
Try maybe a dense canvas or a gessoed canvas for a texture. :up :cheers
