Vincent Price Project: Sculpting (part 4)

Not much progress lately, but a friend of mine loaned me a really nice copy of a VP lifecast. I think it's about 10 years younger than the late 1950's Vincent that I'm sculpting, but it gives a good reference for the landmarks and dimensions on his face. I was actually surprised how close I was on the overall proportions. Most of the areas that are off are pretty much what I expected to find. It'll be an interesting challenge to balance this three dimensional reference with the photos that I've been using to capture the "right" version of him.

    I'd be interested to know how the sculpt is coming along. It looked awesome in your March update. I really don't have the eye for sculpting accurate profiles so I tend to stick to monsters. Your likeness of Vincent Price is spot on!

      Thanks for the feedback-- it really makes a difference to know someone's following along. Vincent's been pretty much shelved since this post. I got to a point where I'd been looking at it too long to know what needs to change. I'm working on new projection effects to begin offering soon, and I hope to pick this back up once those are done in the next month or so.
