1/6 Lara Croft headsculpt *WIP PICS ON PAGE 1*

[Doom Saber]

I like the way how the new Lara Croft from the Tomb Raider reboot looks realistic, yet beautiful at the same time. I am wondering if there are other people on the forums that would see such a head to be made, and if any sculptors are willing to sculpt the head.

She looks very stunning but I would maybe hold on a while longer, I could see Hot Toys making one in time for the games' release.

Not at the moment. I am going to contact some sculptors on this forum tomorrow. Are any particular sculptors you want me to contact? I want to find one who is good at doing female headsculpts.

Now that I think about it, does anyone have a preference on the hair being plastic or doll hair?

I can see that is a possibility, but with the exception of the Assassin Creed toys, HT tend to do figures of license they have done in the past like Resident Evil.

Re: 1/6 Lara Croft headsculpt

So right after I created this thread (a year ago), I contacted a talented sculptor on the forums if he is interested in sculpting the head. Turns out that he was doing one for himself after the game's announcment. A few weeks ago, he emailed me pics of the head:

I'm certainly interested, pending how the sculpt comes out. I'm digging the recent direction of TR.

Those pics aren't showing for me but yeah I'm down for this pending final sculpt

Re: 1/6 Lara Croft headsculpt

The pics aren't showing? I will fix that in an hour

Re: 1/6 Lara Croft headsculpt

Pics aren't showing for me at least

Re: 1/6 Lara Croft headsculpt

I can't see them either. No problem, whenever you get them up is cool. What do you think of them yourself?

Glad I'm not the only one :lol

I'm really looking forward to seeing this, great to see video game characters getting some 1/6 custom love.

EDITED*

Looking pretty damn good so far, nice likeness.

It is because I tried to use the links through yahoo mail attachments. . I thought it would work since it shows up on mines, but that is because I have already opened up the attachments on my pc. I uploaded the pics on photobucket, so they should work now

Re: 1/6 Lara Croft headsculpt

I like it too, but does the lower lip looks a bit swollen? I am okay with it, but I was wondering if anyone else is

 

[Science Friction]

Re: 1/6 Lara Croft headsculpt

Hmm, not sure what I think yet.. I agree the lower lip does look too puffy, maybe the nose is a bit big too. Something is throwing it off, maybe the shape of the face? I think with some work it could be really great. Of course, the camera could be distorting it some? :dunno

 

[Doom Saber]

Re: 1/6 Lara Croft headsculpt

Any feedback would be welcome! Let me know so I can send it to the sculptor.

 

[darkchylde80]

Re: 1/6 Lara Croft headsculpt

Yeah lower lip needs taking down a bit, jawline needs widening a bit, bridge of the nose slimming slightly. It's difficult without seeing the sculpt and a reference pic side by side.

Re: 1/6 Lara Croft headsculpt

I think the hair could probably be thinned out some, going by that picture you posted darkchylde.
