Right now I'm working on the ANH Version of Leia, and she should be finished by mid January.

But I don't know wich one to pick as the next in line ... here are the ones I have on my "List" that
I would like to sink my teeth into next ... but with wich one do I start ??? ... :lol

... what do you think ???


Sean Connery as James Bond 007 from Goldfinger / Thunderball

Roger Moore as James Bond 007 from The spy who loved me / Moonraker

Vin Diesel as Riddick (or any other Character he played ... :lol )

Elijah Wood as Frodo from the Lord of the Rings (should I do him "human" or "Hobbit" sized ???)

Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones from Raiders of the lost Ark / Temple of Doom

^Seconded.^
 
I've not seen anyone approach a sculpt of Rodger Moore yet but Sean Connery would be cool aswell..

Out of all thoughs I recon the most popular choice would be Elijah Wood. Its also a much more challenging face than you might think i.e. you'd need extra big glass eyes to finish him of and the sublties of the skin and features. You've already done Harrison so we know you could just modify you Han Solo bust really. The other two seem a little insignificant next to the the main 4.

Look forward to whatever you do next bud :D

Jesper, add this one to your list - Daniel Craig. I think it will be a challenge for you but a rewarding one. I know of a few people who would also like it to be in 1/6 scale too. ;)

I would personally reall like to do Vin Diesel first for 2 reasons - 1st - I really find that face very interesting
and challenging, and second - this would be the first lifesize "thing" my wife would have no problem with if
I brought it home with me and put it on a shelf ... :lol :lol :lol

On the other hand I would really love to do a new Harrison Ford sculpt ... I would by the way never ever use
a previous headsculpt as a base for a new one - my indy would be an entirely new sculpt with a different
more "indy-like" expression - much slimmer, more trained - just harder - more the adventurer than the Han
Solo mercenary Character - ;)

I really love the Moore Bond movies for Rogers Humor and that they not took themselves too serious, but
Connery for me was and still IS the Only real Bond - cold, hard, a real Gentleman Killer with style :rolleyes

I just recently saw the new Superman on DVD, and I really liked it - Brandons face has a lot in common
with Christopher Reeves face, and still it is very destinctive on its own - a real challenge again to get him
right and in Character without having him look like a Chris Reeve clone ...

And for Frodo ... well, I just love the LOTR movies ... I would love to do a Strider, but you just cannot sculpt
that long mane and make it look right, and the same goes for Frodos hair. If I sculpted him, I would really
think about dsculpting him bald ... a real hard decision ...

See, I'd really like to do all of them, I just don't know where to start - :lol :lol :lol

Right now it looks as Riddick is in the leads - funny ... I would not have thought that at all ... ;)


... and I just thought of another guy I really have been wanting to sculpt in 1:1 for quite a while ...

A hobbit sized Frodo would be OUTSTANDING, I don't believe that has ever been attempted (to my knowledge).
 
Brandon Routh must be hard to do, since even the (possibly laser scanned) action figures look nothing like him. I vote for Sean Connery. A hobbit sized Frodo would be interesting even if the MR Sting FX is human sized. I think his licensed clasp replica is human sized too. Would you sculpt feet and hands if you did a Frodo?
 
im not a big enough fan to buy one but i thought this might be a good idea/opertunity.

spiderman unvailed, tobys face with a half pulled up spiderman mask.

cuts down on hair work, has a cool thing like a spider man mask involved in it and good timing for new movie coming out may drum up a good customer base. the mask work wouldnt be hard as you could make it totally static unable to be moved.
 
Well this all depends on what you're really asking us ;)

Are you wanting our opinions on what would be an interesting project to do next or which would be the most desirable commercially out of what you've listed?

Personally I could do with a Clint Eastwood bust.

i vote for anyone from LOTR...

the problem with Frodo will be the hair for sure...

i always thought a Temuera Morrison would be cool...to go with all those clone/fett helmets out there
 
Temuera Morrison

He would be the most versital. One could use him for Jango Fett, Boba Fett, Stormtroopers (Scout, Snow, Etc.), or Clone Troopers.

Good call. That would be my 1st choice...

However, I would really love to see someone do a great job of a Tarkin bust...
