    I am kind of stuck on Link again. I want to finish him, and I could...but I want to sell him also. If I complete him, then there's no reason to keep him...and I'm not sure if I will be emotionally ready to let go. He kind of grew on me.

      I'm glad you finally made your ape mask, Jess. Too bad about the crack. Practice, practice, practice!

        OMG!! I DID IT! I FINALLY REALLY DID IT!!!

        It was my third foam run. The first did not really end well (the one that was torn) because the vintage mixer was on death's door. I killed the motor, and the revolutions were not fast enough.

        The 2nd foam run took me by surprise, using a hand held mixer...the foam gelled on me w/in 5 minutes, in the middle of my pouring. So this freaked me out and of course, bubbles galore on the nose and lips.

        The third..wow. Third time's the charm! OMG she's so beautiful.

            I wonder how it will look once it's glued on?

                  Did you sculpt this one already?

                    Not yet. I think I tried, but I didn't want to waste my Super Sculpey, so I started all over. Besides, my positive was not ready yet--I only had the vacuformed face to work on. I made an Ultracal 30 positive to work off of a few weeks ago.

                      Does he look Urko-like? I'm going to try to smooth out the roughness.

                        Looks great!!! Can't wait to see it finished. Following your projects is one of my favorite things to do here!

                            Wow, nice start!! TV Urko is one of my favourite ape make-ups. That looks great!

                              New project with a deadline! My customer is my son Ashton, who swears I can do this. Costume has been ordered and delivered, but the mask that came with it is a horrifically ugly plastic vacuformed face. The latex mask at the costume shop is too big for his head. My plan is to sculpt it, mold it, and pour latex. Maybe. I've been churning ideas in my head. I must do this by Halloween.

                                Hmmm, Halloween is in 8 weeks... if anyone can do it, it's you. And I have no doubt you'll not only finish it in time, but it'll be the best Turtle head ever made
