When I first saw the Hot Toys Han head in person, I really thought it was very good. This Jnix sculpt does blow it out of the water though.

With all the talent over at HT and how they miss the mark on HF for both Indy & HS (even Ep VII - it's good until jinx does his Ep VII) gets me thinking maybe disney doesn't own HF likeness. They own something like it. Just not it. ?

They only have Carrie Fisher's based on HT track record.

Just wanted to thank everyone for turning this thread into a Han custom head thread days before my HT Han arrives.

Ha! Sorry man, A good painter can turn the HT sculpt into a really nice likeness though (see below). It's there, just not in the paint. I really do hope Jnix decides to do more though. I don't care that much about the value I just hate to see everyone tempted to the point of getting the inevitable recast.


JazzInc's repaint of the HT:

Ok, I suggest everyone take off their shirt and remove the wire in the V-neck if you don't want your shirt to turn orange. Turns out they put a COPPER wire in there(WTF). Luckily, it's very easy to remove since it's not fully stitched in. Just lift the material up at the bottom and you can pull it right out

Edit: Look like there are 2. One wasn't stitched in and could be slid right out. The other is in between those stitches. Just get an exacto and make a careful cut to open a pocket and slide the other one out. What a dumb decision to put those in...



Mixed up some acrylic paint + matte medium and painted over the stained area in the V-neck and pretty much can't tell anymore. Looks white, but in person it's more creamy yellow like the shirt. Still will probably pick up an extra shirt, but this will do for now

Thanks for the tips. What a stupid decision to put a copper wire in the shirt like that.

Thanks for the tip. Took the wires just by pulling them out.

Congrats QGF!!

I'm thinking about repainting the hair on my HT sculpt brown. I think it may help.

 

[TonTon]

Congrats, QuiGon. It's crazy to see the immediate transformation.

This head makes me the kind of happy that makes me feel like a creep in love with his man doll.

Simply a masterpiece and now one of my top figures!!!!!!

Any tips or reasons youd like to share as to why you hated my pics from the last page?

I'll sue..

Hmm, the way he has the lighter brown hair just towards the front seems a bit odd to me. I think I'd probably want to make the lighter hair highlighted over the whole head myself.

 

[Timemeddler]

Eh???

I think the rest of the hair has a bit of an ashiness tone to it. I would maybe do a wash of something if I knew how to paint. No way I'll risk screwing anything up on this sculpt.
