Looks good, it's funny with as many points of articulation these figures have it's still so hard to get things just right.

Well, any figure will have limits the human body doesn’t, but especially with this Luke, the fat suit pads on the shoulders really hinders it, I removed the upper half on mine and it really opens up your options.

Yeah you definitely need to take that fat suit off if you want to get him into more dynamic poses.

And I'm excited to finally have my Inigo Jedi Luke Head back from Silentsurfer [emoji172][emoji172][emoji172]
Nathan sure knocked this out of the park! My pics don't do it justice! It looks sooooo great in hand!

And I'm proud to show off Nathan's new COAs which were designed by yours truly! [emoji16][emoji106]

I was happy to be able to offer my help in making them. Hopefully more people will be seeing them in the future. [emoji41]

Still have a little bit of work left on him however. Im picking up a grey tunic and sash from Toy Anxiety from the new SS DX Jedi Luke to see it in comparison to the HT tunic and Sash.

I'm also looking at a custom base from Displayheroes...

And then of course a Cold Cathode LED Saber and I think this will be complete. I sure love the action/dynamic Saber pieces HT is doing with their lightsabers though...View attachment 442574View attachment 442575View attachment 442576View attachment 442577View attachment 442579View attachment 442580View attachment 442581View attachment 442582View attachment 442583View attachment 442584

Absolutely gorgeous!
Just one question: is the elbow bent at the upper or lower articulation point? The forearm looks a tad long.

Ayway, congratulations, fantastic headsculpt.
 
Wow! Nathan is one amazing painter. I have a Ben Richards that he painted for the Runningman run he did a few years ago. The Ingo HS is going to be hard to top! Congrats Rzeznikk:hi5:

I'm honestly not sure. I'll have to check after work and I'll let you know. [emoji106]

Thanks man. He sure is. And yes it's expensive but anyone that is lucky enough to get something done by Nathan won't regret it at all.

I'd rather sacrifice a HT for a top shelf paint app for sure.

Picked this guy back up after selling my first one awhile back still not a fan of the hood dosent drape as well as id like but I don't want to remove the wire and make it worse ...thinking of getting some small magnets and putting some on the inside of the hood corners and then on the inside of the cloak by the shoulders and see I that helps keep it down I tried two sided tape but it wouldn't stick I just hate how it pops up in the corners

Have you tried water treating the Cloak to get it to weigh down better?

It's a hard sculpt to appreciate without a pose that matches the emotion and context of it, and you've done it beautifully, his body posture here matches perfectly, it's exactly the position you'd expect to find someone making a face with that expression to be in and you can almost feel the wind blowing his hair in the heat of battle.

Thanks man. I take pride in getting these in great poses. I still feel like it needs some tweaking though. Once I have everything then I can perfect that pose!

Lovely fig.:clap It's very moment-specific obviously but that's probably one of the most iconic ROTJ Luke moments in my mind (though yeah, it was just a promo shot.)

Can I ask how much the head was all up with sculpt and paint?
