    Heres a side view. He is pretty much done,just have to wait for the casting stuff now. I'll fine tune him after he cast in resin.

          Finally got this guy cast.This was the third sculpt i did of him,first one i used wrong clay and it was too big.Second one i used super sculpty,but it also came out a little too big.I had a heck of a time trying to get a decent pic.These were the best ones.Still have to do some sanding etc and then paint him.Should get some better pics when painted.

                While i'm waiting for my paint supplies,i decided to turn the original Ursus sculpt into a generic soldier ape.Redid the nose,brows and roughed in some hair.Needs some work yet but i think he is looking alright so far.Looks like i'm going to be doing another Soldier Ape custom also.

                      I've got to try that. I think I'm using the pink stuff, Super Sculpey but it feels very soft. I was told you have more control with firm...Funny how your General Ursus was demoted to a gorilla soldier, while I promoted my gorilla soldier to be General Ursus...

                        Yeah that is funny.This is the first super sculpty i have used but it says on the box "Firm texture is perfect for sculpting fine details" and this is a gray color which again the box says "makes clay easy to see and photograph".BTW you did a great job on Zira!

                            Looks great, but those eyes are mesmerizing

                              Looks great painted, but are his eyes photoshopped?

                                Yes i cleaned up his eyes with photoshop.I found out the eyes are not very easy to do,i got the right one but the left has been giving me problems.I tried to clean the left one up,then the right didn't look right,so i did it too.I know his eyes look weird in the pic,i'm going to try again tonight to get it right.I'm also trying to do the Ursus head,same problem those dang eyes.I will post the unphotoshopped pics when i get them done.
                                (That may take awhile) LOL
