[MJ12] 1:6 Heath Ledger as The Joker Headsculpt

[agonistes86]

R u using ome kato coat on joker Agonistes?
Great joker btw

Thanks, and nope, all stock DX11. I just took my time futzing everything to make the clothing look as good as possible. The collars of the jacket and overcoat have a wire in them to keep the proper shape, and the coat is held together in the back by a paperclip, which is actually visible in the shot.

Great job on the eyes, but does the neck seem long or is that just lens distortion?

Now that you mention it, it does look just a tiny bit too long, yeah. With the 50mm lens there shouldn't be any lens distortion going on. Maybe that disappears if I pull the collar of the shirt up a bit.

I must applaud you on the futzing bro, it looks top notch!

I finally finished my head yesterday. I might actually add some more black smear over his eyes, but I will let him sink in for a few days first and decide if I really want to do that.
I opted not to use the eye decals, because I felt they would need to be painted over a bit anyway, so it wouldn't have made it much easier in the end.

It's hard to photograph the white, the shots wash out the white parts a bit, in hand there's a bt more skin colour coming through in the folds, e.g. around his nose.
I think as a next step I will have to weather his overcoat a bit to look less pristine. At the moment everything but the sculpt is just stock DX11.

Top notch painting and futzing my friend. :clap
Love the eyes!!!

Hey guys. Finally had a moment and I figured if take a comparison picture. It's with my iPhone but still. Difference is night and day.

 

[Rambler]

Unreal! That DX11 looks derpy next to that sculpt. Congrats!

 

[The Iron Koob]

Did you paint that one yourself?

 

[user 46438]

Is it difficult to get the DX11 head off? I think I prefer this sculpt without the hair extension but it looks great either way.

 

[Jbeltram4]

Kia, if you're referring to me, negative. That's how he came. The DX11 head comes off as easy as any other.

I am pretty pissed off that there are no pics of this sculpt in an interrogation make up because my sculpt has already been shipped out and I never got a chance to see what the final paint job will look like on the interrogation sculpt.

Personally, I can't see any likeness to Ledger at all with that Mob make up, I hope the likeness shrines through the interrogation make up. ray:

 

[liuskusuma]

That's weird.

I believe I'm one of the first that paid since I paid mine during the first batch, but I haven't got any shipping notice.

 

[Darkavatar]

^ Well to be fair I just got the email just then saying my sculpt has been shipped. So I am sure you will get one soon.

 

[The Iron Koob]

Got my email!

 

[Levit05]

I would have loved to have seen one with the interrogation scene also since that one was the one I also paid for...:-/

 

[chubbyman]

They were all pushed to the very end for some reason.

 

[The Iron Koob]

I think it was because they didn't have the hair piece. Mine was mob scene but no extension. Btw does anyone know how to use this tracking number? Korea post doesn't recognize it?

I think you need to paint more black on the end of each brows, near where the middle of the nose is. Right now, the Joker have this confused Panda vibe.

I dont think that angle really shows the potential of the DX 11 sculpt, mine looks pretty decent when posed correctly:

 

[chubbyman]

True, some angles it looks decent, it looks like A joker, not ledger joker. To me that is.

 

[Hydeous]

I can see quite a lot of Ledger as the Joker in the angle I posed up there.

Yeah I really pissed because so far every pic I have seen the the Mob make up looks nothing like Ledger. I was hoping they were going to show us the interrogation scene paint job before they shipped it out, so if I didn't like it I could back out. Now I have no idea whether this sculpt will look any good with interrogation make up, but I am hoping it does since this sculpt does look like Ledger when there is no make up painted on there. Which is the what pushed me over the edge to buy this. I wish now that I didn't see that recast sculpt with no make up. :gah:

I dont think that angle really shows the potential of the DX 11 sculpt, mine looks pretty decent when posed correctly:

I have mine with the head lifted up to get rid of that duck face and as you can see the jawline doesn't look too bad when the head is tilted upwards.



The DX11 has great potential because apart from the jawline, the head shape overall is accurate to the shape of Ledger's head.
