I picked up this ORIGINAL casting by Fettster last week from ChuckyApp. it's not one of those knock offs on ebay. Putting the finishing touches on it today. Just have to get a turtleneck t shirt for him.

Awesome paint up. Looking so lifelike. Overall just perfect.
I always found the battle damage weird, 'cause, there's no way the mouth wouldn't be flapping off and hanging loose from the front of the face with nothing there to keep it in place on the right side of the face. They really should have left flesh go down and attach to the skin at the back of the jaw there for this to look realistic.
Was the braided hose a separate piece?

Thanks man. Yes, the braided hose and all the pistons, eye holders were all separate. Not included with Fettsters original. I had to get them elsewhere.

Okay. My only suggestion there would have been to have it attach more forward on the throat as that hose is supposed to represent the neck muscle that runs from the back of the jaw down to the front center where the neck connects with the collar bone. But it's a bit difficult to change that now.
But it's one damn fine piece of work.

Looks awesome yet again Steve.
LOL Thanks fellas!
I wish I could do that but the braided piece is not that long. It just barely touched the neck. I had to build up some skin around the base for it.

Awesome paint up.:thumbsup
If you painted that eye you did a killer job.

It's a glass eye, thanks!

I think it is a hardware store available braided hose. Unsure of the correct brand. But, it really is a minor thing and doesn't really detract from the piece.
I tweaked him a bit today.. added the 5 o clock shadow and thickened the eyebrow a little more.
I wired up the endo eye this morning, he's aliiiive!
God those last two pics look like silicone. I also love the more bloody damage. I went the more burned route for mine. (You know, you painted it. :lol)
This is simply perfect.
