My personal 1/1 Indiana Jones display

[streetjudge79]

I'm pretty proud of how mine turned out. Thanks to Bjorn (Lord of the props) I was inspired to do a full display with custom made base which I sculpted. Each side is a different design. Also thanks to Gatorbait for making a KILLER display plaque for me. And I love this Howard S sculpt. I think it really captures Harrison Ford. Anyway enough blabbering, here's the pics.

That is an awesome display! The bust and paint job look great. May I ask which fedora you went with? It looks dead on.

Awesome job!!

It's one of those cheapie ones off ebay,made of felt. I think it was like $ 40.00 or so. It is a size Large. Weathered and shaped, it looks pretty good.

I personally can't find anything i don't like about this paint job..

I can... That it is not mine!

No seriously; that's a really nice compliment...

 

[GATORBAIT9696]

that is an awesome job. Looks fantastic..

 

[PHArchivist]

What I think is the best shot, cropped to take out the "bust look"...

 

[Soundwave]

Thats awesome, not only does the bust make me envious, but the whole display and stand is something to admire! Awesome stuff!!

Fantastic work all the way around Steve. The paint work, hair appliance, base - even the moss all looks perfect.

 

[streetjudge79]

Thanks so much guys. This one was my labor of love.

Okay, I gotta say, with the base this looks fantastic! I would only change one thing, but it's more of a personal preference thing. I'd add some gloss to his neck and chest for that "sweaty" look. For some reason whenever I think of Indy on an adventure I always think he's sweatin' like a pig! :lol
Otherwise, very classy display. :thumbsup

 

[speedracer]

SJ..My friend has an indy bust just like yours..when i saw it in person the nose arcs to the right...Is that a real feature in Ford's face..It's not bad i just thought it odd the first time i saw it..=)

WOW looks great Steve,:love love the whole thing, especially the
home made display.:thumbsup

There only one thing, I don´t know if it´s the light,
but I think he is a bit over tanned, and I also think there is a bit too much dark hair on his chest.
Also, am I having some problem with my monitor, because the hat looks green?

Other than that, very proffessionall Steve:thumbsup And thanks for the nice words

 

[streetjudge79]

As far as the hat, that's just the lighting, It's definitely brown, that's for sure.Indy is supposed to be really tanned, all the reference photos I have show him this tan or sunburned looking. As far as the nose Speedracer, yes his nose arcs just slightly in person. Howard captured his likeness perfectly in my opinion.\
Here is one of the photos I went by, he's REAL tan here. I don't see much of a difference between the paint job and his tan in the actual photo. Also his neck isn't real sweaty in this pic.

You ask, you shall recieve...........................a sneak peek..

 

[IndyFanChuck]

Judge, your collection continues to amaze me. Dude, I will eventually have to get your advice on how you do it! AMAZING Indy man, just awesome. I love how the hat is even dusty! You didn't miss a darn thing!

Keep up the great work. But if you get a life sized Blade, I'm coming over to steal it! lollollol J/K

Very nice display. Busts look so much better when the eyes are looking to the side a bit. Most people make them look straight ahead which really kills the realism. Great job.
