Help: creepy or passable (cake related)

I should have done this Friday or Saturday so that if I failed I would have enough time for making and drying out a new one. Drying takes about 5-7 days. So anyway here I am at midnight on Tuesday morning and i dont know if it looks okay. It kinda cracky in a few places and the mouth looks wierd to me, but I dont know what to do to fix besides start all over. and even then I dont know if I can get the mouth right or avoif cracks in the cheeks again.

 

so is it passable or does it just look creepy.

 

FYI: the face will be going on a 3D train cake.

  • Okay, all by itself it is a little creepy.  However, I think that once you put it on the train cake it will totally look like Thomas =)  So my vote is passable
  • I think it could go either way depending on the setting...surrounded by train stuff, it's easily Thomas (and I even thought Thomas when I saw the pic). In a Halloween setting, it's a pitchfork shy of being a devil.

    Yup. I think it's mostly the eyebrows -- can you make them less triangular, or is it too late?  Either way, it will be super cute on the train cake!

  • Thanks ladies. I think your right about it being creepy cause its by itself. onceI get it on the cake it will look better. now my worry is I made it to big! I havent baked the cake or started sculpting yet so hopefully I didnt make it to big. But then again I can always add more frosting to even it out.

     

    more frosting is always good.

     

    Oh and about the eyebrows. thats how his eyebrows are on the toy I used as a model. I looked at another train today and he had regular eyebrows so IDK I guess each Thomas is different.
