Looks great. What about us that ordered just the head?
 
Got the head today. My only complain is that it has too much eye shadow. Here is the modding I am doing.

Might finish modding the body this weekend.
 
Hey Manuel can you please post some closeup pics of the sculpt a little more clear ones, I want to see the final paint up better, and what body is that! Its accurate in size!
 
When I get home, I'll take better pics with camera instead of the crappy ipod camera. The body I'm using for this is one of the ones I mentioned to you some pages behind on ebay. They are like Truetypes, but with cheaper plastic, but a lot bettet then the ones included with the Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, and Messi I bought before.

I removed the abdomen and will get some putty to hold it in place. I will loose some articulation, but it will look accurate. Just need a way to reduce the arm length.

The paint in the head is great, but it has too much shadow around the eyes, and the hair, it's just not Messi. Maybe I'll mod it as well.

Man you are really dampening my excitement at getting this... I mean when I saw this:

I knew I HAD to get it, I really need to see some clearer pictures of your head so that I can compare the problems and ask Denny if he can you know take care of them...
 
Sorry for the quality, my wife keeps the camera with her and when she is around, I forget to ask her for it. These are from an iphone 4. At least this are clearer than the first ones. For size comparison, I included the Ronaldo and Spiderman.

Again, if the hair would have been a bit 'messier' and longer, he would be spot on.

Hi ~~

Actually, our painter thinks the following point

- Our painter thinks Messi has very dark shadows around his eyes, so he added more.(The painted head already shipped was just 1pcs which is yours)

After reading this review, our painter erased the dark shadow a lot.

Thank you

Denny

Aw man. So I'm stuck with the dark shadow around the eyes? The proto paint was great, it should have stayed like that.

Maybe you can send it back to Denny for a repaint, or if you are brave :D try some little touchups of your own. Ive saved a lot of my hair from the salon where I cut it. And Im gonna try putting it on my sculpt... thats bravery :rock

You know, I was thinking of adding more hair with sculpey or something like that. But that hair plan sounds good. Are you going to glue it or what?

I'll try to lighten the eyes up by myself. See how it goes.

First Ill try making a Form fitting Wig Cap out of tissue and glue which I will fix on messi's head and then cut off the excess. Then try gluing strands of my hair and fitting it on the cap. This is so as to not do any permanent mishap with the sculpt... read a tutorial like that somewhere. Will post the link here if I find it again.

If that doesnt work... i will be braver :D

You know, I have a spare Bruce Lee hair piece from the Hot Toys ETD. I will try to fit it, but that would requiere cutting and stuff.

And what you said about the permanent damage to the sculpt, that is what is making me rething the options.
