Sean Dabbs - David Bowie 1-6 scale head sculpt

[Vetinari]

Another vote for Thin White Duke/Man Who Fell to Earth hair here.

(Though the Diamond Dogs tour/Young Americans hair would also be awesome)

Can't commit at the moment because there is simply too much going on. However, Bowie is one of my all time favorite. Difficult to nail down a look, but I'd probably opt for either Ziggy or Modern Love era. Would the head sculpt be bald? Is there a tailor associated with this project?

Here are some pictures of his 1974 (Diamond Dogs) and 1976 (Station to Station/Man who fell to earth) era's. Those were his best imo

Bald version will be offered,

But we need to see if there's enough interest in one. No Tailor associated

If the sculpted hair version uses the Station to Station/Low/Man Who Fell to Earth Look I will do one sculpted hair version and one bald version.

Planning on doing a haired version of his Aladdin Sane look and finding a tailor who can recreate that insane Kansai Yamamoto jumpsuit.

Which hair style is the chosen one guys?

 

[Star Puffs]

It appears the Thin White Duke/Man Who Fell to Earth hair, circa 1976, has four supporters.



I personally feel all slicked back is a bit boring and not really how he looked during concerts. Adding the lock falling off to the side, like on the Low cover or this mug shot.

When he came up during his live shows from 76, his hair was all slicked back, but ofcourse after singing a few songs, walking, moving, etc, the hair falls a bit (locks to the sides). So both slicked back and with the lock(s) falling off to the sides is accurate for a 1976 show.

FYI, guys If you are interested I can offer my paint services once the sculpt is complete.
I can tackle 5 sculpts only. I charge $85 + shipping (USA $10, international $15)

I agree with Star Puffs.

 

[Djfresh]

Hi - please add me to the list - I'm interested in any Bowie - no preference as to era. Thanks!

 

[DarthFreddy]

I agree with Star Puffs.

On which part of her statement?

Interested and this is the hairstyle I prefer if you're keeping track.

Looks like the most popular choices are the Low / MWFTE style and bald. Can we settle on these?

My read is folks who want Ziggy / Aladdin era seem willing to work with a bald sculpt.

Agreed. "Low / MWFTE."

OP - what's the status of this project? Is it proceeding? The list hasn't been updated with new interest and we have more than 15 on list.

Please update.

 

[Vetinari]

Ooh if it's OK could I change my sign-up to two heads please? (if it ends up as one bald and one with sculpted hair I'd like one of each if possible)

Terribly I've just binge-rewatched most of his music videos and remembered the brilliant (slightly guilty) pleasure of his 90s Outside/Earthling era... Might have to attempt his ridiculous blue and orange hair from that period!

 

[emeraldknight]

Sorry for the lack of updates, I will update the list and options during the week.

 

[sdabbs]

Still working on the head guys, will have something to show in the next few days...

I know it's a pain since I already expressed interest, but I sadly need to back out due to personal issues. Good luck with the run and can't wait to see the sculpt.
