1:1 SUPERMAN TORSO progress thread

[Lord of the props]

Hello everyone

I have been working with this personal project for a while now, from time to time. And it will hopefully be finished soon.
As most of you guys know, this bust was sculpted by Nikolas, a very talented member. He made a fantastic piece, thats for sure.

When I got the bust, I was totally stunned by the great details and likeness.
And one day when I was looking at the bust, I decided to transform him into Clark Kent. Yes I know that the hair is not correct for that, but I was inspired by old comic poster from the 80s, where you see Superman like this.

what you see on the picture below is not the finished result. No, I will add arms and hands, and they will hold the shirt, so it will look like it is being ripped up-
I will add some cool details to the tie, a "motion effect":lol

I am also working on a cool display base, but here is a picture of it so far.

Looking GREAT Bjorn!
Glad you like the bust. That was a real labour of love and caused many stressful conversations between me and Nikolas.
The end result was worth all the stress though.

Can't wait to see more pics of it.

Looks good except his left eye looks a bit in. It may be the angle though.

Very Nice Indeed :thumbsup

2 nit picky things, the eyes, although great look a little crossed and just being anal if memory serves Kent has an opposite hairstyle to Superman? But overall wonderful sculpt from Nikolas and I like the idea Bjorn :thumbsup.

Thanks alot guys:love

darthvaderv, thanks man. But you need to read what I wrote before making a comment on the hair.

I wrote " I decided to transform him into Clark Kent. Yes I know that the hair is not correct for that, but I was inspired by old comic poster from the 80s, where you see Superman like this."

Also he is not cross eyed, it´s just the angle and a bit shadow around the eye.

Here is another picture
