Here is a detail of the Batman Head after it had been cast in hard green Castilene and refined with wax tools and textures.

I create silicone rubber molds of the soft castilene pieces of the Batman figure. I will pour a harder castilene into these molds. Once I extract the harder castilene I can then refine the sculpt to the finish.

Now that I have blocked out the pose I wanted and the placement of muscle groups and costume elements I cut the figure up for molding

I'm still in the rough sculpture stage here as I lay in some Castilene to block out where I Want Batman's cape to lay and fold on the figure. I also block in where I intend to place some batarangs in his hand.

I'm still refining the overall sculpt and now beginning to block out the way I want the cape to fold and flow around the crusaders body.  The cape will be sculpted with a combination of soft pink castilene and wax.
