Sideshow Beetlejuice (new figure?)

[Rzeznikk]

I use to rave about sideshow collectibles customer service! I paid off a order and took 3weeks to ship out. I use to call pay off a order and response ok from Sideshow we will try get that out today for you. Ok thank you. Now pay off a order and prey they ship it out sadly. Its not like were spending hundreds of dollars every month on orders... oh Wait we do. I dont realy care for how much sideshow has changed for worse over many years. Only rewards or exclusive release's keep me ordering from them. Im sure many other they treat badly simply is no complaints to go to at the company and ****** reps keep being subpar making company worse sadly.

Yeah it's a corporate machine now. The passion isn't there. You can see it in their CS. Hell they can't even pose and display these pieces like they give a **** any more.

Their earlier reveal video that had the neck the wrong way around was testament to this.

Just had an attempt with the hair. The hairline it is what it is. Can’t do much about that. I’m not by any means an expert/amazing custom artist but for a first crack I’m pretty happy how I’ve managed to style the hair. Unless anyone has any welcomed feedback I might just leave it as it is as don’t think I’ll get it any better.

I would also like to know what product was used.

That looks pretty close to perfect to my eyes.

Thank you for the kind replies. I used water, soft paint brush, standard tweezers and vo5 wax, clear matte.

I used the water and brush to really wet the hair and brushed into position. I really pushed hard on the hair in a circular motion to rough it up and create more curls as the hair is so straight. Once I had a rough shape I dipped my brush into the hair wax and then straight into water to go over what I’ve already done to so they wax will hold it in place. The tweezers were used just refine the hair and give it shape.

Hope this helps everyone!

Dude, that looks terrific! Exactly how I'm wanting to style mine when he arrives.

Excellent guide on the process. Please post some pics of the full figure if you're able. Looking forward to seeing the styled head on the body.
