The Dark Knight Cowl Sculpt (Critiques wanted):


Hey guys, just wanted some advice on where my sculpt is going. Any input is appreciated. I've still got a lot of work to do for this, but it's getting there. Feel free to comment and leave any advice. Thanks!

UPDATE:

Sorry for the blurry pics at the end. Just wanted to see the sculpt with no flash.

From what I can see, I still need to refine the cheek bones, work the nose more making it more flush with the cowl, maybe even make the eye holes a bit smaller. The ears might need to be a bit longer as well.

As far as I can tell, the ears look good. I wouldn't touch them. even with the things you mentioned, it looks great-

I also agree the ears look good. I also agree with the cheeks. Maybe revisit the brow line, I know when I was trying to sculpt a cowl I would not get the damn brow right to save myself. Also, there is a mild crease in to top of the head on a lot of other TDK cowls I have seen. May want to look into that as well. Other than that, the base looks solid. I think it will turn out excellent.

Where did you get the armature you are using? I am looking for a new one and I like yours.

did you sculpt over the ears or did you cut them off?

Sculpted right over top of them. The clay is pretty thin around them though. I didn't want the cowl to be too wide.
