Hey everyone! Well, I let my thread fall to the back again. It happens every time I book a solid acting gig. Painting falls to the backburner, and I have to work extra hard to get my commissions out. This one I've been excited about showing everybody. It's one of those "out of the box" commissions that I just love.

This is Pixletwin's Chancellor Palpatine head repainted to look like an Episode I Darth Sidious. There was some debate as to whether or not he should have the Sith eyes, but I was really glad Pix went with them, because it makes for a more interesting, and very striking custom.

FOKKK..THATS ONE AMAZING CUSTOM....PIX WILL HAVE THIS MASTERPIECE ??? FACE PAINT MAKES HIM LOOK SO REAL.
 
HOLY CRAP man!! This is the BEST head paint I have ever seen you do bro. Vader was my long time favorite from you, but this edges it out. It's Fraking AMAZING. :bow:bow:bow

Seriously, the eyes are intense.. yet jaded. And the irritation around the sockets so very well blended. Amazing job all around. You are still the master of the Sith around here. :rock
 
You have got to be kidding, that is an amazing piece of work. I have'nt got the word to describe how hoe this is, is that a custom robe aswell.
 
Wow! That is amazing. I was one of those that was a little doubtful about Sith eyes on a regular Palpatine head, but it definately works! I'm going to have to bug Pix sometime and come over and see all of his wonderful customs.
 
Wow Mikey, every time you come back from a break you come back with a vengeance!!! That is a fantastic repaint... looks so awesome :rock
 
Well, there can certainly be no doubt that sculpt is Ian McDiarmid to a tee. Your skintones are always spectacular.

Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!!!!!!!

im with everyone else.........HOLY CRAP !!!!! "amazingly lifelike" doesnt do justice on how to describe that repaint. and seems the consensus is pics rarely do the real item justice i cant imagine this thing in hand because the pics are absolutely breathtaking. outstanding !!!

You are welcome to stop by my office in South Salt Lake anytime. :rock
 
Wow! Mikey amazing work. The skin tone is so lifelike and the sith eyes are definitely the way to go. Another Fantastic paint job!
 
This custom is not quite finished. I still have to do the hands, and I really want to change him to a Hot Toys body, but I want to at least go ahead and show you the finished head.
Especially now that Darren is selling his prototype piece, I think it's timely to honor his work by showing you my paint-up of his amazing Legolas re-sculpt.

There would be no greater honor, than to have a Customikey painted Palpatine residing within my own collection! May this day be sooner than later! :rock
