Making The Incredible Hulk (part 3)

Here, I've finished the sculpt and the base. Notice the difference in the hair from the last post. This "boxier" look is a more iconic look for the Hulk.

The base is actually much different than my original plan.

I had the idea to build much more of a broken brick wall behind him (like a diarama), but once I got started, I reduced that down to an asphalt chuck with a few broken bricks. This decision was made for a few reasons. One being, that I realized the model looked good from all angles and it would be a shame to cover up the backside with a wall behind him. Secondly, the large wall that I had in mind would have consumed a lot of extra resin and would have driven the manufacturing cost up.

So, I chose a lower profile base that shows off the entire model and reduced my cost to make the kit. But I put enough detail into it that it doesn't hurt from these decisions. It's a nice base and I like it.

The last image is of the kit after I busted it up for casting. At this point, I had to wait to complete the detailing on the pants until after I had it broken apart. That way, I could finish the pants/legs seam before I did the pants cuff around the knee.
