You certainly don't suck, you've done a fine job! I certainly wouldn't quit ! You're way ahead of me though , I'm not much of a painter, I'll admit to that . I don't have a painted version of this head in my possession yet !

If you've enjoyed painting this ( which I think you have ) then we've both accomplished what we both set out to do which was to have some fun with this.

haha yeah there was a lot of enjoyment and a lot of pulling my hair out. i think im going to go ahead and repaint this guy again
:banghead:banghead:banghead
 
I think your paint job is good and you're not giving yourself enough credit. 1:6 head painting is difficult because it requires more detail than the smaller scaled stuff. Also it doesn't hurt to use some head fodder that you may have laying around to practice on. I usually use an old head to get a test run in for hair color, skin tone etc. before I start the main project. But again I think you are being too hard on yourself.
 
Not the best pics, but here we go!!

Comments please?

Great job, Kuzeh! That paintjob really brings out the sculpt. I can't wait to get mine painted. This sculpt is so much better than the original sideshow ROTS Obi.

awesome kuzeh..u did it good

Thanks guys!
I still need to tweak a few little details, but overall, I'm very happy with how it turned out!!

Looks pretty good. From your new pics it looks like the neck is a bit long and skinny?
:horror

Just kidding!!
Maybe a tad long, but not skinny, I'm going to use a TT for it, so it should be OK since they compensate for the clothing.

The neck was made a little longer to help with moulding problems, the issue with the goatee being the main one. I also thought about how it would fit on a Hot Toys body and the fact that some of the neck adapters sit lower brought this mod into play. That and also the way the top collar sits around Obi's neck .

Anyhoo...

Some new pics for you. I was asked by one of the guys here if I could mod the Obi Wan head for him to make it more like the Clonobi head (with no neck) to attach to a Hot Toys or prometheus adapter. I quite liked the look of Obi with the missing neck after the modification ( funny that, after all the trouble I went to ... :lol ) so I wondered what Anakin would look like too. With a cast that was in need of some tlc I went to work ..

And this was the result ...

They are both on the prometheus body . The Anakin would need more work around the attachment area as I made the hole a bit on the big side but I think they look pretty cool !
