I had bought some red mirror sunglasses to do a similar rigging to how they did for BoBF, but after scaling my reference to my actors head, my lenses were a little smaller. They still would’ve worked but I think I came up with a better solution than even Disney, but we’ll get to that later.
Some background, I’m a great procrastinator. My best work is down the day before, so I needed to have this sculpt down and ready 10 hours before my I picked up where I left off. So all these upcoming photos were right before class, for which I was 2 hours late on a 4 hour class, but once I arrived to class, all was forgiven.
My glasses seemed too small so I grabbed the closest thing in arms reach that would work as a substitute at least for the sculpting aspect, which were safety glasses since they confirmed to the head much better that any other glasses and the lens were pretty close the the Disney made ones. Better lenses will be acquired/made after this step.

Because I only have a half head cast, I decided to clip the arms short on the safety glasses so the sculpt could still lay flat while sculpting and when I get to the mold making.

Unfortunately my initial modeling was mostly for not, as I hadn’t installed the glasses to model around I had to lift most of it off.

This is around 4am and my class is at 11am. Unfortunately I got this far and I didn’t grab enough clay from class to be even close to doing this sculpt. And to add more of a time crunch. All the Walmarts in my area aren’t 24hours anymore so I have to kill 2 hours until 6am to buy more clay. In the upcoming pictures the new clay is white instead of gray, so it’s hard to distinguish clay vs plaster until the end.

Aaaaaand BAM! I got here and pretty much ready for pore texture.

Here is some. I didn’t have any idea how to do pores, so I grabbed a plastic fork and pretty neat ch played drums until satisfied.

This is pretty much done and I took it to class 2 hours late, but the teacher was quite impressed, . Right before starting the mold I added more pores and tweaked the eyelid shape a bit since I wasn’t 100% ready.
Let me know what you think thus far.
