Nice, thanks for that pic. And also thanks for that unpainted pic, he looks quite accurate!

Will have to contact Lonnie about those three heads!

Does anyone else have these three custom "Hero Heads" (Hudson, Ripley, Hicks)? I'd love to see how an an expert paint-job looks.

wow alotta info here.. thanks..

Hmm never noticed that Hicks, how does that one look painted?

I think this is the Hicks head or else it might be the re-painted "Stoner" head from HT military figs. There were more pics of people's repaints and custom heads etc in a thread called "Building your marines correctly" but I dont know what's happened to it - I cant find it.

Here are some shots of my customized (by DarkArtist81) Hicks. It kicks ASS!!

Excellent work. That could come right out of the 'these people are dead, burke' scene...or indeed any other scene where she has her mouth slightly open! Your stuff looks very professional, not like someones custom job.

Whoa! Is that the stock head resculpted? The hair looks the same. Looks great but I think I'd prefer her with her gob shut!

Here are some of my newly (re)re-painted Hero Heads of Hudson and Hicks below.

Thanks! I have to say I'm really pleased with how it looks standing on the shelf here. I've got the first batch being cast as we speak, I might have them in about a month or so? They're coming from America, so it's just a case of waiting for them to turn up.

You know, you're right. That line "these people are dead, Burke!" works perfectly doesnt it? And thanks for your lovely words

yep. that is awesome darren

yeah, its the standard head resculpted. I left the hair alone though, as if I started changing that I'd never finish! plus her hair changed so much during the film that you'd have to pick a specific scene to match to. This standard hair is a good mix of all of them.

Your repaints look great. good work.
