"The Good, the Bad & the Ugly" Custom Figure Project

[melanarus]

Are they jeans he wears? I thought they looked more like chinos than denim.

What are the best trousers to use?

Well, I remember in the GBU Documentary or something Clint had only ONE pair of blue jeans he dyed black for GBU. I remember they talked about how he took home the whole costume every night since there wasn't duplicates of any part of his outfit.

The Jeans above on that neat looking Blondie came from me as well as many of the items. They are black jeans from a BARBIE doll Twilight figure. That figure also has the blue striped shirt I used for many Blondie customs I've made. You can get the doll for under $20 shipped on Ebay so you can get Clint's black jeans and striped blue shirt off that figure and toss the rest in the trash.

The Black jeans have to be stretched to work. My preference for making Blondie's pants are to get a pair of ACI Blue jeans and throw some black acrylic washes over that to make the jeans look screen accurate.

Was Clint Eastwood's poncho green or brown in the movie?

 

[georgieboy26]

olive green, but sometimes looked kinda brown

I just flicked through some Google Images and see virtually no 'Olive Green' and all brown, where can you see a good reference of it being green?

Awesome! So it is all down to he lighting!

The poncho is Olive green, but the sun tended to fade the color to brown during shooting, which is why the top (being hit by the sun) sometimes appears brownish and the bottom (untouched by the sun) Olive green.

Thanks for the details, so I'll have to weather it and add different shades to get a accurate look to it!

For the belt!

For the belt!

Stevo makes the Clint holster and snake pistols but he's quoting at least 3 months for orders.

I'm going to try and make a Clint gunbelt using the belt from this one:
Battlegear WST.H. 417.02

and the holster from this one
Battlegear WST.H. 418.01

They're only $12 each so still cheaper than the other makes.

I don't want to post any pic's until he's completed but i just got hold of a pair of T1000 Police uniform trousers for my Blondie and they look great, very Chino like.
The only thing is i had to cut my boots down to get the legs over them but it's not noticeable.
