Thanks hairbag and pcleemake!
I've adjusted the eyes a bit and added the bump on the bridge of his nose and I think I'll stop making anymore changes so I don't accidentally mess something up.
I've also finished the back of his hair, which I know will probably never be seen when displayed, but I had fun sculpting it

Thanks georgieboy26! That's a big maybe on the fly head

Anyway, the mold came out great and I was able to finally pull a cast this evening:

I can't wait to paint him and see what the figure will look like completed

I'm still waiting on the new pants and shoes, but here is the full figure so far:

Pants, shoes, belt and watch came in today:

I may swap out the body, but it looks fine for now, but I'll see what it looks like when I get the head painted.

Really excellent work! I know it's not the priority; but if you do the kind of half transformed head I'd be totally in for one. I love the movie, but I always prefer the monster to the man

Re: WIP - 1/6 The Fly / Seth Brundle / Jeff Goldblum head sculpt

Thanks galactiboy! I'm not much into collecting monsters, but if I can make my telepods, I may make an exception

For anyone interested in a cast of the head sculpt, I made a FS thread here: https://www.sideshowcollectors.com/...le-jeff-goldblum-head-sculpt.html#post7515223

hey buddy, I saw your thread. just a heads up, I think for 55 dollars a head, most people don't want the additional work of drilling out the bottom. =/

I'm not in the business of trying to make money with this sculpt but I didn't want to undervalue my work either. I did this because I personally wanted one and so did a friend of mine, so if no one else is interested, I'll just move on to another project, no biggie. However, if fans of the movie and the character want one, I want to make it available for them.

Re: WIP - 1/6 The Fly / Seth Brundle / Jeff Goldblum head sculpt

Thanks! I'm hoping to have this painted in the next day or so. I'm so excited to see what the finished piece will look like since I've been staring at a grey face for too long lol.

Finishing a resculpt of this to be Ian Malcolm from Jurassic Park, then I may go back to some Doctor Who sculpts.

Thanks again. I actually did that on my Doctor Who thread: https://www.sideshowcollectors.com/...my-pond-9th-war-doctor-bad-wolf-finished.html

It's nice to get ideas and if it is something I'm personally really interested in doing, I may do it.

Actually that's not atypical... I find about 1/2 the heads I paint for customers need to be drilled out, and some cost a lot more than $55

However, one way around that is to make the mold so that the opening in the neck is part of the cast. It's not always a perfect fit, but it's easier to open up a hole in the neck than to completely make one.

Had some time today to finally paint my personal Seth Brundle. It looks better in person, but hopefully the pics are alright as well.
