1:1 "Freeborn" YODA (THE ULTIMATE GOAL) R.I.P STUART FREEBORN

Re: 1:1 "Freeborn" YODA (THE ULTIMATE GOAL) My first PULL from the MOLD!!!!

This Yoda and cane are looking outstanding. Please pull in less hair at one time. Just one (that makes two when punching) will be the way to go. You´ve made an awsome paintjob as well!!

Thanks guys,

Yeah i'm redoing the hairs one at a time now. As for the hands they are different from the V2s but the feet are more or less the same. The finger nails are going to be smoother and slightly opaque.

;)

I never thought I would say this, but I don't suppose you might be focusing a bit too much on the details? :lol

Make sure to find out the depth of each hair at the insertion point, and also the individual strand break tension rating. :lol

Seriously, though, Phil, this just continues to show how accomplished you are in all aspects of character design. It is simply incredible to see this kind of dedication.

Just received a sample of the latest fabic - a type of Silk noil from a company called ** @2%6& ** .... sorry don't want someone finding out and bulk buying the lot to use for their own project ;)

Thanks... Hopefully, I've learned lessions from others unfortunate enough to get their research (like this fabric) snatched from behind their backs, after finding out who the supplier was and then buying out the entire stock... leaving the person finding the stuff empty handed.. Yes this fabric is the real deal. Far more course than any other Noil I've come across with the weave double the size of the older stuff everyone else was using.

Anyway, I've Ordered some yesterday so can't wait to see this on my Yoda static display. I'm doing two versions... the cheeky version and the creepy version showing his teeth.

This is actually mindblowing. The level of detail you've gone to is INSANE.
I'm actually quite a spring chicken compared to most of this board (21 last week!) so I remember literally growing up with the original SW films as my babysitters when my parents were exhausted :) this definitely looks like the Yoda of my childhood stepped out of the screen and the swamps of Dagobah.

That's the most authentic looking Yoda I've ever seen outside of the OT.
