Hyper Realistic Reconstructed Sculpture Part #8

On Monday of this week, I returned to working on #5. The focus for the moment is adding texture to the skin.
I've been experimenting with different tooling methods in order for each individual model to have a unique quality to their skin. These past few days, I've been concentrating  on the left side of the face as well as the entire neck  It's a back and forth process with numerous revisions so even though these images give the appearance of completeness,it's actually an early stage of development.

While working, I'm continuing to think about the overall project design and what the next move should be. I really enjoy the process and find the end results somewhat anticlimactic even though I recognize the need to finish things. I'm satisfied for the moment, the results of OM and OW but they're essentially finished and for me interest in them won't come back until all the characters are being assembled together.
Next time, I hope there will be some updates on #5 as well as another older piece.
