Re: 1:1 'Classic' Freddy Krueger Bust... WIP

Unbelievable work, Howard! It looks exactly like Englund, and the expression is spot-on to that promotional photo.

'Looking forward to seeing the finished piece!

Cheers,

Yeah! Classic Freddy... that's what I'm talking about. None of this 2010 remake crap!

nailing it as usual mate :)

your vs still has to be one of my Favourite busts

pt 2 make up is one of the nicest in the series but maybe the hardest to get for reference for the top and back of the head :(

is your customer sorting out the glove for the display ? If not I can point you in the right direction for some of the most accurate makers out thier :)

can't wait to see him finished

will their be any chance of a translusent resin bust ?

Great work so far and great choice for a classic Freddy look. Yagher was, and is, one of the best all time. Look forward to the finished piece.

I have a few gloves ordered from Nightmare Gloves, Anders makes a sick glove for sure ;)

As for selling any of these in resin... no way, no how ;) I am officially done with resin and 'kits' for any new pieces I sculpt.

Yeah! Classic Freddy... that's what I'm talking about. None of this 2010 remake crap!

Yeah I agree, I finally watched the 2010 Nightmare this weekend... complete trash! I mean, if your going to try and re-do classic scenes at least TRY to out do the first film... dumb, dumb, dumb!! And what's the deal with the teeny bopper 'Twilight' formula in these movies... so damn boring.

Or maybe in the 80's when I was a teenager we were just much cooler than these dumb kids today :)

Great work so far and great choice for a classic Freddy look. Yagher was, and is, one of the best all time. Look forward to the finished piece.

If you think about it, if it wasn't for Yagher's makeup, Freddy might have been completely different. All they did for part 3 was go a little lighter on the sculpture so that the appliance was thinner and that way Englund could act more... but that makeup is basically taken from Yagher's, not the first film.

Yes!!! This is one of the things that rubs me the wrong way about David Miller. He holds up his work on NoES 5 and cites his involvement with creating the makeup for the original movie. The original movie barely shows a face for the character, and what was there is nothing like his part five sculpts, which are an extrapolation of Yagher's work.

Great sculpt, Howard! Looking forward to seeing the finished product.

Very nice. This is what Freddy should look like. Let's face it even if the new one hadn't been crap it wasn't right without Robert England as freddy.
 
Re: 1:1 'Classic' Freddy Krueger Bust... WIP

Looks dead on so far & it would make a great book end for your VS piece which is perfection.:thumbsup

Outstanding work!:love

I was always partial to the first film's makeup over Yagher's, but you really did nail his version!
 
Re: 1:1 'Classic' Freddy Krueger Bust... WIP

I noticed you said you were in no way going to do a bust but a silicone mask would be a nice option for us that can just put this on a mannequin for display. Plus silicone holds up far better than latex.
 
Re: 1:1 'Classic' Freddy Krueger Bust... WIP

Great scuplt.

I had a huge version of that exact poster back in the 80's. I might still have it somewhere. I liked the makeup in the Freddy Vs Jason movie, but NOES 2 will always be Freddy to me.
 
Re: 1:1 'Classic' Freddy Krueger Bust... WIP

I had that poster inside my closet when I was growing up.
I left it there when my parents sold the house, and I heard that it scared the crap out of the kid that moved in :)
Can't wait to see more of this sculpt!
 
Re: 1:1 'Classic' Freddy Krueger Bust... WIP
