Pushing my Bane Masks further with Cx5

I have been able to hold back the perfectionist in me no longer... I have seen some small details that I dont have in my current Bane mask. I have decided to cast my Bane mask in Cx5 a very cool sculpting/finishing medium made by Adam Beane, check the stuff out! 
I currently have two bars into the head, and a plaster core.
As you can see though when demolding the cast some of the fittings snapped because of the amount of tension.. and I wasnt being very careful. Some of the main places I will be editing will be:

• The front top four pipe fittings ( adding a slight arc on top fittings and lower fittings)
• The grill pattern will have hexagonal holes rather than just holes
• The pattern on the top of his head will look more like the 'cloth' look of the real mask
• The rear side metal parts will have a little more detail that I overlooked

This process will take a little bit of time, but I will not be rushed, which will allow for my full concentration. Let the games begin.....

Recent Cast of bane mask with new paint job and new tubes

Check out these pics of my most recent cast of my bane mask, with new tubes and a new paint job. Tell me what you think...

This photo turned out way too saturated and over compensated the blue, it is actually like the pictures below, but this photo was very nice for displaying detail of the new tubes.

New Bane Mask Pipes

I have recently made a correction on the Bane mask that resulted in a more accurate and appealing look to the mask. I will post pictures once I finish the mask's paint job.

The pipe on the right is the first pipe I made.. The one on the left is the new MORE ACCURATE version.

Here is a closer look at the new versus old pipe for the front top 4 and bottom 2 in the mask; compare below.

Here is a picture of the real bane mask.

The Four Month Journey

Hello all,
My name is Russell Jeschke this blog will host a series photos of the progress of the 'TDKR Detailed Bane Mask' I created from from start to finish as well as show you where you can get one.

It started out as a personal Halloween costume project... as Halloween went by; a Christmas present for my brother... as Christmas went by, it became just an awesome gift he appreciated; being the BA marine that he is.

A photo of my brother wearing his monster bane mask.

Detail of the side I used as many 'already made' pieces as a could find in the sculpt. Instead of trying to sculpt the ribbed tubes going over his head, I bought some wire loom and got a perfect representation all the way up and over the head. etc

Here is a close up on the tubes. I wanted to keep alot of detail in them. Especially the four diamond textured tubes. I found a way to keep the tubes true to the bane mask as much as possible. My brother was happy with the results..

You can see from the back that there is an enormous amount of time was spent on detail of this mask. you can see that there is a texture that goes over the whole head
