1/6 Indy Customizations: Image Thread

[Cavlcade]

Yeah I used the CS hat on my custom, works well I think.

How are you finding the fit of the head on the body Mike? I dremelled out some of the head to get it to fit lower.

hmmm.. I may have to revisit the fedora.. that KOTCS does look good... as for he dremel work inside the noggin to set it lower, duly noted.. will most definitely go that route as well.. the neck bulges a bit right under the rim of the head.. looks unnatural.. but yours, set lower, remedies that issue... great tip !

[Cavlcade]

That's the CS shirt too. The holster/rig is something I made myself.

Can't wait to see what Mike achieves...

Nice paint up Jack. Anyone know what kind of self-hardening epoxy,etc. could be used to sculpt a different hair style on the hatless Indy head? Thanks fellas.

Tamiya makes a good two part sculpting putty... you can get in in most hobby shops

may want to change his eye color. May be the pics but they appear to Blue. Ford had hazel eyes.

I've used Fimo on the Indy head. You can sculpt it and when you're done bake it hard in the oven. The head, being vinyl, can withstand the temp needed to bake the Fimo. I've had no problems using it to add beards or hair to Dragon or Sideshow figures in the past.

Actually Ford is a blue eye.

Ive taken iridology before ive learn how to spot the eye colours.
But it is a bit bright cos of the flash. i'll darken it a bit anyway.

That was an ugly tan jacket I got off ebay years ago. I used RiT color remover then bleached it to get semiwhite like that.
