Hey guys here is the Jack Sparrow bandanna that I have for sale. It is made to go over the original bandanna that came with the HT DX Jack Sparrow. They are $10 each shipping included. PM me if you are interested.
I also did a little tutorial of what parts need to come off of the hair piece.
I worked on the color to try and make it darker and got it slightly darker than before. I can't go too dark or I will start to lose the detail of the pattern on the bandanna. I also found out that if you iron the bandanna do not use steam. It will fade the color and that is part of the reason my first one is lighter. I didn't realize that until I was working on this one.
On to the pics
First is just the original hair piece.
Next you will need to lightly heat up the little bone beads on the front of the bandanna as well as the piece of hair that hangs over the front. You can do this with warm water or a hair dryer I used the hair dryer. The heat will loosen the glue so you can pull them off without damaging the parts.
Then do the same thing to the back of the hair piece and pull off the pony tail and the tails of the bandanna.
You will then have all the parts removed from the hair piece that you will need to. We will only need to put back on the bone beads, front piece of hair, and ponytail.
Now here is the bandanna I lightly ironed the basic shape I needed and I will send them out this way. That way you won't have to futz as much to get started.
Now comes the fun part of putting the bandanna on the sculpt. This will take a little playing with to get just right and you may need to do some trimming in certain areas. But overall it really shouldn't take more than 20 min to get it all on right.
The knot in the back came out significantly better this time you just need to trim that area a little so it is slightly thinner and you can get a more realistic scaled knot.
