Fabulous. I love the skintones and the mouth. You've resisted a high contrast look and gone almost albino, which is absolutely right for a creature that lives in the snow. The hair works too. I've often wanted to try 'live' hair but never had the courage. Is it crepe hair you used? (No jokes please! )

 

[Boondocksaint]

yes crepe hair
thanks so much for the compliments
the hair is a pain in the a$$ lol
i held off 2 years painting this because i did not want to mess with the hair,,,if you have any questions about the process let me know

This is really good David. Reminds me of the stuff made by the late great Stan Winston and Rick Baker. I am being serious.

Thanks man. The sculptor is Casey Love who I'm sure was inspired by them. I merely painted it and added hair. Lol
