Since the plaster and densite look the same in those pictures, it looks as if you're just scuplting the head from a big blob of plaster.

Nice chisels.

Heh, I thought the same thing. Densite *isn't* much different from plaster, which is kind of irritating in a way, as it's pretty easy to scratch and break it when the mold's being chiseled off. On the plus side, it's going to be pretty easy to repair or carve out places where the mold kinda broke apart. It seems more fragile than I'd hoped, unfortunately. I hope it can withstand the playa, as I'd like to bring it out there.
