You are too kind Savage, I work for Koto but also for other companies like Yamato, and a few others, I do most of my stuff for clients in CG, this allows me to move faster with official projects. For my own stuff I may keep doing traditional, it is a good balance.
Here's some new images

I RESEALED THE MOLD WITH MORE SILLPUTTY ONLY COVERING THE AREA WHERE I CUT WITH A LITTLE "WORM" OF SILPUTTY... WAIT UNTIL IT CHEMICALLY CATALYZES ( 5-10 minutes depending on how hot it is during the day) , THEN I CUT A LITTLE POURING HOLE ON THE TOP OF THE ALIEN HEAD.... POUR HOT WAX..... WAIT A GOOD HOUR, AND VIOLA...!

Thanks man!
I use Silpak red wax, which by the way will be discontinued soon, but they came up with a gray color version, which is just a good, and flexible when warm.
Here's some images.... you can see both waxes, I twisted those little wax sticks into springs, by hand... very cool wax... you can order by phone by calling the number at www.silpak.com make sure you call the Pomona California office

I'm loving this piece. I think her alien lifeform arm is really cool looking.

I'm glad your going to continue with the traditional sculpting. There's nothing like doing hands on work. I'm going to try Zbrush myself, hopefully it won't be too difficult to learn.
