An update on the sculpt for my fursuit's head. Same suit as last time (see this post).
I started from scratch for two reasons; the styrofoam head was getting unworkable, so I bought a new model head (yes, you may say you told me so), and the first time I had no idea what I was doing, and had just started out willy-nilly, which meant that some mistakes in symmetry were just too hard to fix.
Design of the suit and close-up of the head.

The last image is tilted back; in the process of sculpting, the face has drooped quite a bit, but this is the angle at which I want to use the mask. May have to cut back the skull a bit and add to the throat.
The plan was to use the lips, nostrils and horns directly from the resin cast. Obviously I still have some work to do there, and polishing as well.
It's not turned out exactly like in the concept art, but not always intentionally. Next step is to measure out the fur allowance evenly. (My guess is around 4 mm?) And should I allow for extra space for seams at ridges? (like between the brow and muzzle)
Lastly, any comments on the brow? I like it exaggerated, but when it's furred, will it turn out just too big?
All critiques, comments, suggestions and backrubs welcome. Going to flop on the couch now.
