Re: [JNIX] 1/6 ANH Luke custom head sculpt - Taking orders!!

Raise the eyes like this, this mean?

That was a good note about the eyebrows.

I see where you're going with that, but keep in mind those pupils are going to be close to infinitesimal at 1/6 scale.

This!

Leave it alone guys... It's getting a bit much at this point,

The changes made were reflective of the majority feedback before and I think helped it a lot, but at this point the nitpicking of the pupil size or the golden tinge on the hair or whatever is getting a bit much.

Yes, that's what I'm talking about. May seem like an insignificant detail to some, but the eyes can make or break a figure for me. Whether your pers break, the eyes are cross eyed, or they're positioned to where the face is expressionless and lifeless, it can really limit the poses you can achieve and ruin an otherwise great sculpt and paint app. I was hesitant to post any suggestions since a lot of people seem on edge in this thread, but the difficult revisions are done and the sculpt looks great. I guess I was wrong for assuming that simple suggestions (not revisions) to the paint app wouldn't ruffle any feathers.

THAT slight eye position change (not the pupils, but the eye position) is the deal sealer! Makes Luke come alive, imho.

Yep - totally get drawing a line under things at a point, but the adjustment to iris and pupil positioning helps things quite a bit still. After all we're all on the same side here as Jnix. We just want the best possible Luke. The actual sculpt at this point is a lock for me. It's just minor paint app mods now, and just the eyes at that.

Pretty sure Jnix uses decals for those eyes, so a tiny adjustment like this would be child's play, and I think it takes the whole project up to yet another impossible level of great.

He used decals for the Han sculpt eyes, but these proto pics appear hand painted. Regardless, he also took to heart some suggestions on eye placement for Han and may do so for Luke. It's an easy accommodation for someone of Jnix's considerable talent and professionalism.

i gotta agree with the pupil positioning, straight forward eyes always give off a dead look, sadly much of what hot toys is offering recently.

Surely it would be more difficult, as you would have to trim each decal for the part of the iris you won't see with the repositioning suggestion?

Jnix already did an AMAZING Solo one with the eyes looking off to the side on Chubby's.

Made it look like a shot out off the film!

Hello guys,

Please check below pictures which I have put the head sculpt on my HT`s Luke body. Hope those helps.

And if most of you want the iris go up, I will put the iris up a little bit not much, to be natural. and I am not going to mod the size of pupil. Please keep in mind that PSed pictures can not be correct reference of real head sculpt. I just feel pity that I can`t share real stuff with you in hands.
Please leave your opinion about the position of iris if you prefer to be upper or stay so that I can decide to mod the position of the iris or not.
Thanks,

It looks SUPERB!!!

I can't wait!!!!

Torn with the iris, though. Hard to tell without actually seeing one. As Jnix said, photoshop vs real-life, is a very different story.

My gut feeling is iris up (slightly) will look better... kinda like the Han is?
 
Re: [JNIX] 1/6 ANH Luke custom head sculpt - Taking orders!!

Iris slightly up is what I'm thinking too. Love the pics Jnix!
