Absolutely stunning work, Vash!! Replied to the PM, btw. 
VashDStampede's 1/6 head sculpts and custom figures - The Princess Bride, Doctor Who / The Fly
- Thread starter VashDstampede
- Start date
Thanks James Kenobi 1138, CB2001, and doctorwholittle!
I'm taking a break from full scale for a while to focus on learning to sculpt smaller scale figures.
I know it's been done before, but I'm trying my hand at the 10th Doctor David Tennant @ 1/6 scale.
Here's Tennant so far. I'm still working on the face a bit more before tackling the crazy hair, but I'm pretty happy with how it's coming along.

I can't imagine what more you have to lean. Everything looks stunning and perfect. I am amazed at the fine details like skin texture and hair at this scale. Are you using the same tools which you would use for a 1:1 scale sculpt?
Thanks doctorwholittle, streetjudge79, and Randy13!
Since I have to use smaller dental type tools and having to use such tools to smooth instead of my fingers, it has been a challenge. I'm trying to learn more textural things as well as fine detailing, so hopefully in my future sculpts these will show up more.
Here's a little progress of my 10th Doctor sculpt and a fun side by side pic of the actual actor (although this sculpt is a mixture of different reference pictures):

You have insane skill and talent!
Thanks Haystack Hair!
madmikeee - I do have a 1:1 Matt Smith that needs a companion, but I still haven't perfected my robotics skills

That should be amended to 'MAD robotic skills'. ;-)

Ok , I'm new so I'm not sure how to PM or email anyone . Haven't figured out the whole board yet . Anyway . My idea is to do custom figures for the ALIAS TV show and I need an accurate sculpt of Jennifer Garner for the Sydney Bristow character . Perhaps you could email or PM me so I can tell you more and ask specific questions .
I had quite a bit more 1/6 builds, and just realized I haven’t updated this thread in years.
I’ll have to look back at all my previous sculpts and builds, but here’s the latest one.
This was a quick bash and modification I just completed of The Princess Bride Inigo Montoya.
I think what took the longest was receiving the leather pants in the mail. The majority of the build was done in two days.
I don’t know if QMX is ever going to come out with more The Princess Bride figures, but until then I’m pretty proud to have this figure as a placeholder.

so lifelike, wonderful work! would love to see more
Thank you rbeach84 and DarkKnight!
The Dread Pirate Roberts looked so lonely in the Detolf shelf, so I wanted to have another figure in there to make it a more complete display.
Here’s my latest custom figure. 1/6 scale Clark Kent / Christopher Reeve.
Most parts are readily available from eBay, however I did modify the head.
I also didn’t like the glasses that came with the head, so I tried my hand at making my own pair of glasses.
The glasses are acrylic with tortoise shell pattern which is translucent that I think adds more realism to the figure.

Made a new pair of glasses which I think is more accurate than the previous one.
Haven't updated this in a while, but here's a couple more that I've done since I moved on to teaching myself to 3D sculpt on the computer.
Here's a Mrs. Doubtfire sculpt I did for a friend:
I'm working on a Columbo figure for my collection, so this is still a WIP:
