'Make My Day' 1:1 Clint Eastwood/Dirty Harry

[Weaselhammer]

Wow ! You are one of a handfull of people on here that continually blow me away with your sculpting talent ! I've always envied artists who could make such great 3D representations like this.

That is an amazing likeness, looking forward to seeing this progress.

 

[Stormtrooper]

That is absolutely fantastic!

It just... IS.... Clint Eastwood! Amazing how you are able to capture the actor's little nuances that everyone recognises at a subliminal level when watching a Clint Eastwood movie! :eek
In fact, I'd say writing 'Clint Eastwood' in the Thread's Title is Overkill, as 99% of people in the Western World would instantly recognise who the sculpt represents.

Just disappoints me a 'lil bit when an excellent likeness is posted, of an actor who I would have no mannequin display usage for. Kinda like the fantastic Bruce Willis sculpt from a while back, sculpted by a talented Frenchman.
If you could just turn your talents onto an actor from the Star Wars Original Trilogy, then I would be able to 'tick' both boxes!

"Did I use six pounds of clay, or only five? Well, in all the excitement, I kinda lost count......."

:lol.... And the vote for the best gag in this thread goooeeeessss ttooooo.... Betamin! cue the applause!

Cheers,

[chuckyAPP]

Very nice, the likeness is dead on, and thats a great studio youre working in too, nice setup.

 

[angraecum]

a different version of howard but well done

 

[Haywire]

just awesome

 

[thefaceman]

He looks amazing!!

Fantastic job, if they were smart, they would have given you a contract!

 

[Petseal]

Fantastic start wilysteve, even in the rough state it has an uncanny resemblance to Clint Eastwood! :thumbsup
If you do half as good a job with this as you did with the Sigourney Weaver/Ripley bust it will be mind blowing!!!
As a die hard Eastwood fan I would give almost anything to own a life size, or even smaller, bust of him!

Now if you could do a Captain Kirk, in any size, because to the best of my knowledge every single likeness I have ever seen of him NEVER looks like William Shatner! :confused

 

[Figure5901]

Brilliant! I really like the roughness of the sculpture but it still has the dead on likeness. Love it.

 

[Zwilliamo]

Damn amazing! I love the raw look of the sculpt, giving it a sketch feel while being 3D. Keep up the great work!

 

[leviathan8609]

Looks great!

 

[Spidermen]

That's sick!

Hehe, Shatners wouldn't really ever be my choice to sculpt. But never say never


As for this project, barring a miracle I think its in the ether unfortunately. Definitely one of my first choices though if I ever do miraculously get 4 months to spare and the money to do it :confused

 

[Spoons]

Spot on!
