Custom Michael Douglas scuplt

[CyberVillain]

Hi.
I'm thinking of doing a custom / kit bash figure from one of my favourite films, Falling Down with Michael Douglas.

This classic face made by Michael would be the most movie accurate.

Sadly im not a sculptor myself, do you guys know where i can get this done?

Theres lots fo cool poses in the movie, but the one im going for is the classic one used for the poster and cover art. Featuring a Remington 870 and his attache case.

A later goal is to get a bag and fill it with movie accurate weapons such as the TEC 9, Uzi, MAC-10 etc...

The falling down sculpt with above expression works for a Gordon Gekko figure

edit: Without the weathering effect offcourse.

works

It works as in close enough, I would be very pleased if a sculpt were available for either him as Bill or Gordon with above expression.

edit: The biggest difference is the haircut...

Just saw this on eBay if you are still looking. Glasses aren't the best but the rest looks OK.

MEH, that's looks pretty awful TBH, I'd be on board for a QUALITY sculpted head.

I would love any sculpt that I could use for Romancing the Stone (just needing a hair redo).

Of course then I would have to commission or sculpt Kathleen Turner myself....

the listing doesn't even spell his name right (spelled it differently twice and got it wrong both times!) so it makes sense that there wasn't much attention to detail when making this custom. i'm sure it's an awesome "Mcheal Doglass" figure though

Wasn't really posting it for you guys. I was posting it for cybervillain

From a sculpting perspective, the sculpt is pretty good. If you don't think so, download the photo of the face and grey scale it. It's a good sculpt but the expression has a surprised/shocked look--- like Gordon seeing his stocks tank.

The problem is the paint ops are off: the figure should be lighter and pinker. The colors are too "heavy" and don't allow enough contrast. It's a pretty easy fix by applying "wash" to lighten things and neutralize the yellow ochre color (that'll make it look less brown and more tan). Then a burnt sienna wash to neutralize the raw sienna (that'll make the sculpt look even less brown and more Caucasian). Then create some high lights with a light flesh and white mix. To get rid of the shock look (which I like) a simple repaint of the eyes should do it...

If we are a bunch that want this done maybe a sculptor would like to do it for us? I would love to have a Falling down figure in my collection.

Those glasses looks like a open frame version of Rayban Wayfares, which are pretty iconic sunglasses, maybe those are available in 1/6 scale?
