Re: 1:6 Heath Ledger as The Joker Painted Headsculpt (Updated with New Pics on 1st Po
Ok Id just like to keep you guys informed on certain things.
The sculpt is pretty much done. The artist has seen all your suggestions and regarding some he/she has this to say. Firstly about the pronounced brow lines, they are there as a painting device as well as to ensure the final cast has some lines as Ledger has it, though they might be less pronounced. When a sculptor is both a painter and sculptor they prepare projects with a certain idea. A sculpt is prepared not just as a standalone but as a complementing part of a whole idea. There are numerous exampled where you can see a perfect sculpt losing likeness when well painted. Which shouldnt be the case. However sculpt and paint are complementary, so a sculptor has to leave some leeway for a painter to get a final product. I know many may not agree with me, however thats how some plan their approach. So please wait for the complete sculpt - which includes painting.
Regarding partial hairing, as we have said before, the artist will not do anything of the sort because its not viable for such lengthy production runs for one person to do in deadline times while keeping the quality consistent. However as the sculpt is nearing completion we are still seeing if modded sculpts can be produced for those who would like to try hairing on their own. Do keep in mind that modded sculpts will still be painted and will not cost any different from the non modded ones IF they can be produced.
The paint testing will happen soon, and ofcourse in terms of feasibility we will try to sort things accordingly about what different painting options can be done.
Thank You all for your continued faith and support for this.
