My life size General Grievous.(complete head painted & new eyes)

[southreplicas]

I started my most important project till today.
I sculpted the head. Eyes for reference.
I will continue with torso, arms and legs.
so if I get tired of the project I can use just the head for display. .
It is made of scratch but then I 'd like to cast each piece in resin.
Please let me know your opinions...

.

Please if you have a good detailed pic or the laterals it will be very usefull. It would be great a ortogonal view.

I will continue posting the pics of the WIP.
I hope you like it. I will do my best.


Regards.
Southreplicas.

I think you can use Sideshow Premium Format figure Grievous for reference.

 

[southreplicas]

Thank you Dwimmerlaik.
Does anyone has a good pic of this figure?

I'm anxious to see the progress of this project. Nice start so far.

 

[Mxlplx]

I'll be following your progress, it's looking great so far.

 

[darthwhitey]

an ambitious project...good luck.

 

[SethB6025]

You are off to a great start, impressive.

 

[Darth Fetty]

Wow, this sure is quite a project.

Good luck. The head looks nice.

 

[SithLord]

That's the best face I've seen so far....great start...I'd be happy to post screen caps later today unless someone beats me to it

 

[JunkSabers1138]

How'd you make it? It looks pretty good so far. :thumbsup Can't wait to see the whole thing... if I live that long that is :lol . But really I have a friend who's a whiz kid and he calculated with the last Full Size Grievous project that a full size Grievous could take many months to even years to complete :eek . I know that may seem short to others and I could wait for it if I had discipline in patience. But it's all worth it at the end.

Lo mas fácil y a tu alzance seria conseguir la figura de acción de 12 pulgas de Hasbro. La podes conseguir en Camelot Comic Store, que me imagino sabes donde queda o en SW Toys. O por lo menos te podes acercar con una cámara y sacarle algunas fotos.

¡Espectacular trabajo.

I have a few screenies, but they are huuuuuge. The quality is top notch. PM me if you need some.

As I commented over on TPZ, awesome work my friend.

You KNOW my name is on the interest list when you come to do a run of these. :thumbsup

 

[southreplicas]

Thank you all for your words. They really motivate my work.
I am optimistic with the speed of the project because I am sculpting polyesthylene blocks and it is a quite "easy cut" material. Then I sand it a lot and I protect it with a vinyl glue coat and I aplied over it a 2 components epoxy resin. It is not an usual technique but it works for me.
I am runnig out of references for the lateral view of head and the rear part. I am not good at capturing screens. Maybe a good pic of the 12" figure could help.
Let's be in touch.
