"Hicks Trophy" Xenomorph bust

[LoreCraft]

I recently created this as a "salute" of sorts to the character "Corporal Hicks", as I am still really salty over what they did to the character (and actor) in the 3rd film.
Traditionally hand sculpted in clay. Moulded, and cast in platinum silicone, of various shore hardnesses to match the respective tissues (the back open wound is shore 00 for squishyness, and the dome is shore 40 for toughness). The teeth are cold cast aluminium.
I filmed the process and edited into timelapse, for anyone interested in watching it come together.


Questions, comments, feel free, or hit me with a PM too if it suits. Hope you fellas enjoy the work. Cheers - Nicholas

This is way rad. What scale?

I had to do it by eye, but I'd say it's roughly lifesize, or maybe "teenage".

Dimensions:

Height (base to top of sculpture) 38cm

Length of skull: 35cm

Max width of skull: 21cm



Display base: 25x25cm
