Re: GalactiCustoms! ☢ Thulsa ☢ Dr. Pretorius ☢ Brosnan ☢ Venkman v2 ☢ ROTS Kenobi

I'm aware of 3 Darren did back in the day... Anakin, Legolas and Kenobi. The Legolas is probably my favorite, he really brought the likeness out of the jacked up Sideshow one. Anakin is quite good as well, reduced the manliness of the Sideshow sculpt and made him less idealized... I'm just finishing one of those as well and a stock Anakin, so I'll post both as well.

For his Kenobi, I like certain aspects of what he altered, but honestly prefer the original sculpt.

Here's the original sculpt that I'm also painting:

And Darren's before I weathered it:

Thank you for the info! Yeah I see the difference now. Gonna look up the others you mentioned. I think the original has more likeness to me but they both look great man.

I think Darren may still offer some of them... doesn't hurt to check with him on Facebook.

One more head I'm just about done with, Rocco's Raylan Givens. I'll do a few more tweaks and get the hat finished up today:

I think my Maul may require an overhaul ! WOW !
 
Re: GalactiCustoms! ☢ Thulsa ☢ Dr. Pretorius ☢ Brosnan ☢ Venkman v2 ☢ ROTS Kenobi

Maul is a very good sculpt of Ray Park... just suffers from a bit of a blank expression and dead eyes... I got this before picture from Rebelscum; just not menacing at all. I also went with a darker red.

Great work on Maul. The details are super crisp. :clap I'm glad my version was able to inspire others. :)

Thanks man... I told you day one I was going to steal your idea :lol Just took me awhile to get around to it. It really makes a major difference on him.

So thanks again for posting the great step-by-step on how to do it :rock

Thanks man, now I need to redo my previous redo of Maul :lol

Yep, he's in there... got the current heads about 50% done, so hopefully done by Friday if all goes well.

Colors are all funky since this is from my iphone and it's very bright where I paint... but you get the general idea :lol
