Really? The Daco is a nice sculpt, but the shape and size of the eyes just looks a bit off to me.

However, I almost lost one of those buttons. They're tiny and stuck on. Well, one fell off and I spotted it. God knows how.

I agree with you. I think part of it is because the way the eyes are painted. I am not sure what it is per se as the shade used on the Daco custom appears to be the right shade of color. The iris of the eye might be a tad too small. Also, the bridge of his nose is too wide. While Benedict Cumberbatch has a wise nose bridge, it narrows subtlety in the middle whereas the Daco sculpt goes straight down. Lastly, the lines on the top of the bridge on both HS are too define - even if Cumberbatch has those lines, they aren't visible in post photos online.
I have a Daco sculpt painted by Pete and I prefer that one even though the shade of eye color is wrong since it looks more like Cumberbatch. As said earlier, it might be the size of the iris being too small on the Daco painted version.
Anx10us, do you think the Viva one will be released?
And do you by any chance have more photos of it?
;-)
Thank you for all that interesting info Anx10us ;-)
Just found post in fb by Vimal-he did Poptoys Victorian Cumberbatch.

Would a ttm22 work for a Watson custom? Ordered a sculpt and need a good body to put it on.
I ordered a sculpt too. Is that the Daco one? I'm waiting for mine because the BCS Watson is on a small body and the Daco Sherlock sculpt was undersized.
I believe so. I bought it from Kumakuma. I want the BCS Watson, but the stock is running low and I won't get paid for another 2 weeks. So I may just have to kitbash.
I ordered an unpainted one and will need to find someone to paint it.
By complete coincidence, I managed to grab a new BCS Watson for £80 ($100) so I was lucky. They come up on ebay for good prices from time to time.
Thanks, I'll have to keep an eye out. I'm going to paint him myself, so at least I can save some money on that front.
Cool. Post pics when you're done!
