So AWESOME Nathan...Can't wait to get one (or two!) of these. Any idea of what the cost is going to be?

Wow, that helmet looks great! I like the Boba Fett PF for the most part, but this new sculpt would significantly enhance the overall look of the piece. I'm a huge Boba Fett fan and it's awesome to see talented artists doing him right! I'd so be in for one of these if there is ever a run. Great job!

the mold turned out beautifully and i pulled the first cast from it last night.
ill post pics of the kit pieces tommorrow morning.
if anyone would like one i might have 1 or 2 spare

Love one. PM'd you.

Depending on the cost, I'd love to replace my PF Fett head with this one. However, if you only have a few, I'll gladly let Indiana Fett in line before me as he's been backing this so enthusiastically. After that, if there's still some available, I'd definitely be interested. PM sent.

just awesome!!!! can't wait to get it and add it to this bad boy to make it look even better.

That is one Hell of a fantastic replacement head!! I really love what you've done with this, really great work. Much more accurate.

If I had the PF and my bank didn't screw me and mess up my second FlexPay payment.... I'd be all over this.

Without a doubt, what you did is much more accurate. How did SSC got it wrong in the first place...

i am a huge fan of Sideshows work.
Id imagine its either been the referrence material they were given for the helmet or that LFL asked for it to be changed

I am a huge fan of SSC too, got every single piece of their 1/6 scale item. I hope the 12" Boba Fett to be released in time is closer to your work.

id love to have a go at the 12" version, that would be one hell of a challenge though.

natty15d, I wonder are you a sculptor by profession. From the images you showed I do feel you are of professional standard.

Nathan informed me that he's sending this out to me today (thanks Nathan). When I get it and start to work on it, I'll post progress pics, etc.. If others are getting this, we can also share any tips here concerning Nathan's custom beauty!
