selling my Inigou Nonpainted script
If anyone need one as I just got a painted
one
 
Received mine on Thursday, and after hitting it with my heat gun for a while (and squeezing the crap out of it), I think I was able to get the head looking a bit less narrow and closer to the 3D render. The difference is really subtle in pics for some reason, but in hand it feels like a big improvement and I'm a whole lot happier with it now. And I can't wait to paint it... eventually. :)

Before and after:

And until I get the new Iris outfit, here it is on my old Android Hunter.

Thanks, but it did take a lot of work actually. I've done this before with other customs pretty easily, but the resin they used for these heads is a lot tougher for some reason, so first I had to hollow out the head some more with my dremel (so there'd be less to heat up), then I used my heat gun for 5-10 minutes to soften the head a bit, and then while squeezing it (with my thumbs under his jaw on either side, and not under the chin) I dunked it in ice water. This resin bounces back the second you let go, so you have to keep holding it while in the water for 20 seconds or so, and then just leave it in there for another few minutes.

The head will be steaming hot of course, so you'll also want to wear smooth gloves of some kind (that won't leave an imprint) as you squeeze it. And I'm sure boiling water would work perfectly fine to heat it up too; I just prefer the heat gun since it takes less preparation (and also less boiling hot water that might burn me). :)
 
Good tip davejames

As you can see the sculpt is the same as the print,

I had the pleasure to paint it and I think it's way better in hand,

Doesn't look narrow to me,
