Great point Lane,
and that is the reason why i post these things up. I can only do so much brainstorming by myself, i need more brains, and that is were you guys come into play.
Lane- You are correct the tooling is for sure very time consuming, but i like the over all look of it. As for wet forming over the tooling, you lose a bit of detail , and you have to let partial dry before for boneing, and even then i only use my finger tips, no other object to press in the detail, or you will actually smash and distort the tooling.
