Re: Once Upon a Time in the West Frank - PROJECT FINISHED

Looks great!

I really like the paint work on Harmonica!
Will he be painting Frank as well?

I think he painted Frank a while back, pretty sure the pics are somewhere earlier in this thread.

He decided to redo the other sculpt and is giving the fig a more "leathery" look.... Harmonica came out incredible!

He used a clone TTM19 body

I used a Soldier story 2.0 body. Harmonica's head is a little small, so it works well.

I need to try to find one of these, do you have a link to this body? Sorry to ask, I just can't seem to find a 2.0 body anywhere.
I have tried every other body I have and nothing will fit Harmonica's head. The TTM-19 + knockoffs are miles out, and the coo-model etc also have necks that are way too large.
Normally I just drill out the head a little and it's no problem, but Harmonica's head is so tiny overall that it just doesn't suit any of my kitbash bodies.
Franks head is working very well though, can't wait to get him finished up.

Heres the Harmonica jacket prototype!! I REALLY like how it turned out. With a few hand washes and some weathering it will be perfect.. let me know what you think!

Re: Once Upon a Time in the West PROJECT (Harmonica jacket proto is in!)

Definitely needs to be dirtied up. Would also like to see it with the sculpt on the body. The scale of the clothing can make or break a custom.

The tailor doesnt have the sculpt, but by the look of the second pic, where you see the neck, it appears fine. Im going to give mine a nice paint wash and some weathering with some pastel chalk

Looks great. A few thoughts. Can the collar be made a little smaller with less weight to it? Can the seams on the sleeves and at the bottom of the coat be closer to the edges? I think these minor changes will help it look more in scale. Can't wait for these to be completed!
