Thank you I bought from ebay, you can search with "Vin Diesel head". I painted his eyes...

 

[El Skutto]

Truly impressive work!

The only thing I'd recommend modifying are his knives. As you can see from this image, the handles should be almost parallel with the blades, making a sort of U-shape. You'd simply need to extend and curve your handles a bit.

Thats a great Riddick custom what headsculpt did you use ?

Looks like the Headplay head to me!

And Y4NK33 PL4N3T might be counting the Anime prequel (Dark Fury) that came out when Chronicles hit.

I used Headplay Vin Diesel head, I cut his neck with a utility knife... ( because the body had already a neck )

Thanks to everyone

Correct. Pitch Black > Dark Fury > Chronicles of Riddick

Dark Fury is an anime 35-40 minutes long with the voices of the actors and continues the story from the end of Pitch Black to the beginning of Chronicles.

The 3 movies are sold and advertised as "Riddick Trilogy" as seen here:

Pitch Black the best

I made one of these a few years back.
He does look pretty good with the modded Headplay head.

I agree on the swing blades though. Here's a picture of
the props blades, some used in the movie. Maybe these will
help if you don't already have pictures. 1st picture were screen used
blades.

Also, are you going to do the dark brown cloak he had?
It really makes the figure. Maybe something to consider.

Yours looks great though. Just some food for thought.

Wow those prop blades are bad ass

Are those yours?

I made first movie character but the knives from the second movie. I can not change knife handles, because wrists of the figure, does not turn enough. While standing on his back as an accessory, knife handles, of course, important ...

Perhaps, I can do two knife handle can be changed. Retained, and on his back for accessories ...

What I did with mine is made them on sword or knife grip HT hands(like Perseus) or even drill out some HT fisted hands.

I fit them right to the hands with just enough room to
take them out of the hands when needed. Since they blades
swing around in front of the knuckles, you just leave a little room.

Its easier to do that and just adjust the back knife sheaths to
work with the new shape of the knifes.

You can also make some hand wraps to fit on the
sword grip hands and regular hands, so you can just switch out the hands.

It looks like your arm & hand wraps are made as one part? You should be able to turn the wrist if you change that.
You'll just need mods to the wraps you made.

So easy fix if they are, just need 2 parts(arm is 1, hands are 2).
Just end the arm wrap part at the wrist or
just over the wrist. So you can switch out each hand type
as you want. That means you can make as many types of hands
with hand wrap parts as you want and when you switch them out they
should all blend in seamlessly with full articulation at the wrists.
As long as you use the same material it should look great.

What do you think?

Yes, it can be, I worked on it for two days only. I am currently in Istanbul for the last internship.

After the internship, I can work on it...

Thank you
