Howard, that is just mind-blowing ! Well done Sir.

Do you plan to make another one and somehow give it its bluish tint, or is this going to be your only 'version' ?

Well done again, the sculpting is absolutely fantastic.

Just had fun playing around with the tinting. Certainly not suggesting AT ALL that it needs it, was just curious to see what it'd look like. Again, unbelievably cool!

That looks the absolute business. Wicked job howard. Love it. What resin did you use to make the bluish tint one.

Way too much blue there, man!!!:eek

I believe the skull is actually 100% clear, and the blue is from light refraction through the skull. If you look at the front face of the skull, it is completely water clear.
The blue on the teeth is painted on with acrylics.

After all the work he has done making this amazing replica and this is all u have to say about it? Knock him on the color of the resin? Wow dude.

On a more positive note..
Howard that thing is mind blowing.. Fantastic job man!

I wasn't knocking Howards work!:rolleyes

I was replying to 'mercureyx' for his photoshop work in post #103

Howard did an amazing job on this! thumbsup
I'm just putting my 2 cents in on what the original looks like compared to what others believe if it's blue or not.


Howard's original pic is here:

You guys kill me

I can ASSURE you, this is painted correctly... I cast it in 100% clear and then I airbrushed a layer of translucent blue ink over the whole piece. I then sprayed a layer of trans black in the spots that required it. My camera sucks and the prototype is so-so.

Its probably just the lighting when you took the pics, it doesn't really show all the color detailing that Im sure is in there

Re: 1:1 Crystal Skull 'Indiana Jones KOTCS' Sculpture (Final Skull Pg. 3)

This is probably one of the more memorable builds on the RPF

Don't let the critics/tire kickers get you down.:unsure

Your work is as close as it gets to owning an original.

You've got to be insane to critique Howards work even a little!!!:wacko

You can't get as close to perfection than Howard can! thumbsup
