Please do, Dean.
Not to put pressure or anything but, we did send payment a while ago and have been waiting patiently. Please make sure that we get the perfect heads for this project.
Its no 1 on my customs project now, and it would really disappoints me if I get a sub par sculpt from what could possibly be Adam's masterpiece.
Thanks bud

No pressure at all. You did and you have... and it is much appreciated.
This would have been finished some time back with the white resin I use for other projects but I wanted to do the flesh tone as you don't see it that often.
Like I said in post #929 "The heads will all be within about an 80% range the same color. None will be extremely translucent."
And those are not. As for concerns with detail. There is no difference.
The slightly translucent casts look a bit more glossy but it's due to light and not detail. It's not like they have a smooth surface. I haven't come this far to give you guys crap product.

The process...
After mixing the resin - they are cured at 60psi for 20 to 30 minutes.
This is the result.
A full mold:
Batch-O-Goodness:
Envelope mold:
Pre-trimmed head:
Break off the base:
Trim the flashings:
And here, we, Go!

Cant help but to notice some of the details are not too visible here?
compared to this one thats on the first page:
is it just the lighting or pic quality, Dean?

I have actually decided to scrap my BW bash, so if anyone would like an extra (pre-drilled) sculpt for $60 instead of $66.50, shoot me a PM and I'll pass the change of ownership along to Dean

Bad lighting and graininess was due to low light. Like I said before - the detail is no different.

Re: Imaresqd1 Bruce Wayne Order Thread (Anyone that owes read post #749)
The one with the purple spots must be the original, but there is a major difference between the cast head shown on the suited body (1 of the original 10) and the ones coming out now.
I am not too thrilled with the translucent resin, it doesn't make for realistic flesh on miniatures. Is is possible to tint white resin rather than crystal clear? I would take plain white if that's easier. I'm so sorry you had so much trouble with this I am just a bit concerned.

Sorry but I'm not following the logic of wanting a white one rather than a flesh toned one that you have not seen in person. If you are painting a white one, the base coat will cover just as easy as it would over the flesh tone casts.
( Excluding painting styles to show the base color...)

I just want to compliment Dean on those pour channels, his solution to the deep set eyes. Smooth, Dean.

I'm confident what we'll be getting would be nothing short of stellar in quality - i've been speaking to Dean about this whole project very regularly and I have nothing but praise for how much work he's put into this whole thing. No need to worry guys

I am sorry I rocked the boat, you are probably right on the painting aspect but I would likely have just kept the white one as it is to admire. I have no experience with total coverage painting, I was fearing too many layers would take away from the details. Again, I am very sorry, I can't imagine the work it takes to make those molds and the troubles you have had with the bubbles.
