I admire your project. Looks like you have a good hand for sculpting.

Looks good to me.
Always hard to tell the finished look w/ out lipstick, eyes, brows, etc.

I tried to sculpt a mouth by itself just for practice and it just wouldn't work without being attached to a face to give it perspective and balance.

It's not really the look I am after,she looks a bit fierce ?

I will attempt to soften her looks a bit
Thanks

Hi, her right eye looks a little higher and smaller than the left. Not a biggie, most people are not 100% symmetrical.
We people tend to crook our faces with aging, like grinning to one side etc. That affects how a hat is set, often worn askew shortening the "long" side of the face.

This looks like a really good job. I am excited to see the finished product.

Yeah, she looks totally different with a fuller and more gentle face. The first photos reminded me of Uma Thurman.

Hi Matt, nice work so far!

Any way you can lighten up the photos a little?
Maybe put a lamp or something on one side so you get some shadows defining the features would help.

Once I am happy with her basic features I will work on the finer details..

Hey matt, nice start

What if you put some of the WM eyes in there to kind of give yourself an idea of what you're going to end up with when the face is done? I find its easier to use actual eyes rather than try and sculpt them in. Also,have you ever worked with monster clay before? I find its pretty good and versatile. Can pour it when heated and you can even freeze it to increase its rigidness.
