Thanks man, it fits him perfectly but needed a little weathering to match. Here's a before and after:

Found just the figure on the cheap, he came without the pauldron so used stormtrooper commander's orange pauldron on him. He looks great, love the weathering, done really well!

Would be nice to add a Han Solo to the collection but this sculpt doesn't look quite right. Kinda reminds me of that one older comedian, whats his face...

Some food for thought. Grabbed this photo from the imposter Joker thread. To my untrained eye, the hair looks rooted to the scalp and doesn't look to have the glue line issue of this Artisan scalp. This is just a one off example but I did observe a few others and they looked similar. If this...

Curious if your imposter has the noticeable hairline issue? Hadn't heard any mention of the hairline issue when the imposters were being delivered and talked about. Here is the HT Artisan display figure. Looks like a direct hair root to scalp. How can they show this, then go ahead and send out...

Here is his full video in proper aspect ratio lol.

Not mine, but had to be posted here.

Any handy tips to share on futzing? Looks like you removed some of the product that was in the hair and it looks much better for it. The artisan would benefit from trimming little bit here and there. I would like to try but need to wait for some direction from others.

@james the cat, his hair looks really good there, did you do a restyle? If so, great job!

Heise did a nice job with the sculpt root. I feel the artisan can look very close with just a little trim and a restyle! (R) artisan, (L) Heise rooted

That was one of the poses from HT original preview video for the artisan:

I wonder what type of futzing was done to the vest? I like the darker tone on it. "When life gives you limes... make a vest!" -Hot Toys

I feel this artisan looks best with the eyes off to the side, if even just slightly.

HT vs a few custom sculpts.

To me the HT sculpt here looks better than the original in face & color. If you're gonna change anything, change the original!
