I think the people who achieved that with the Indy Pf actually recast the head in silicon, so you would probably have to do the same if you wanted to accomplish that with Jabba.

I haven't seen that one, I guess. I do know of at least one person who recast it in silicone though.
And of course the puppet was foam, but that doesn't necessarily mean you want it to look like foam.
And here is John's repaint of Indy, it's unreal.

Mikey I never felt Jabba needed a repaint until I just saw your comparison shots. Holy crap!
Thanks! Yeah, to be honest, after I was done painting Jabba, as satisfied as I was with the work, I really didn't realize the huge difference until I put a second one next to him! Sadly, I don't get commissions for Jabba very often.
I have one I am selling..if anyone is interested.
It's an Ikea Expedit TV Unit...

Jay! You will not regret it Jabba is such a great centre piece. I took me ages to get mine. I like you was so put off by the price but I waited and waited and eventually I got one at a good price.
As for the throne, I can not offer any insite to getting a cheap one only do what you have been doing, keep saving and watching ebay.
I am really chuffed for you my friend.
And namnori, nothing beats the moment when to box arrives and you go... "ow my thats a very big box" I hope the wifes out!!!
