Nice job, Sachiel!

Nope, eyelids in both, they're just wide open in the standard shot, look at the ridges bottom and top. So, I guess the eyelids covering the orage is supposed to be him with his mad face on?

Really? I think the fit of the suit is one of the strongest parts of the prototype.

I agree with you Flosi the fit of the cloths look good to me.

 

[Science Friction]

Uh, wow, did the design team talk to each other between sculpts? LOL. Well, I guess if his eyelids are retractable (which is logical) then it's a pretty cool choice. It gives you two very distinct sculpts.

 

[galactiboy]

Well now that is an interesting comp... clearly painted in the regular sculpt.

This means there is still time to fix it Sideshow

 

[FLOSI]

EX cancelled.

Well crap, one head is right, the other is 'different'. Could the open mouth one be based more on the Clone Wars cartoon then? Did he have eyelids in that?

I just think his eye lids are half closed, showing emotion, thus the orange of his eyes are covered.

I feel like an _______ now. I had an emotional reaction to something without looking at it more closely as an artist, all the while criticizing Sideshow for not seeing it as artists. I suck.

If those who quoted me would kindly go back and delete my quotes from your replies, as I have deleted my original comments, I'd appreciate it. I'll be leaving this thread now. Awesome figure all around.

I'll take care of it for you SS...

Yeah I can see that. I just wasn't very specific about it.

Yup. It does make sense for the 'dynamic' aggressive sculpt.

Thanks for having my back GB.

is it me or does the screaming sculpt look like both eyes have eyelids & the reg has an eyelid on his left eye and none on the right.........

 

[galactiboy]

Do what I can... although I still don't think he should have actual eyelids. And they did paint the color of the eyes the wrong color in the regular sculpt.

So still some issues, but again nothing that can't hopefully be sorted out before he's in production or fixed once we get him.

Thanks for getting these up Sachiel! Yes, as you all can see the regular head does indeed have orangeish eyes/black pupils. The Exclusive head does only show all black coloring/eyelids but his face is in a more angry stance.

Yeah, not to be a bother... but that's not really orange enough of a color. It looks to be about the same as his skintone. A simple fix, but still one I hope is made

But good to know the eyelids, no eyelids was a conscious decision

Don't beat yourself up Surfer, the poster above had to magnify the image for it to be seen. Maybe its changed recently, but in most artwork the orange and black eyepieces have interacted like a lidless animal, so why would anyone have thought to look for retracted eyelids. Even if it had changed for EU stuff I think most people just expected it to be like the movies version.

It's 2:30 here, not 5:30.
