Yeah, that is substantially better. That is amazing eye work. The only negative thing I'd say is that the seam is more prevalent now. I wonder if he could do something about that. Great,great repaint though.

 

[Mudblood]

I don't think the hair is glued back on or put together tightly. I'll ask about it though.

This sculpt would make for a good custom Lord Tywinn Lannister.

It would make any even better Dale from the Walking Dead. Which isn't saying much.

 

[TheFiend]

Yeah, I do think they were using Charles Dance as inspiration there. Though I've seen pics of this figure before but this is the only angle that really pulls off a Tywin-esque look.

 

[TheFiend]

After taking another look at those pics from earlier this year of the Marcus figure, I have to ask, did they alter the sculpt a little bit? I'd really like to see that above pic with a repaint.

 

[Mudblood]

These pictures don't do the paint justice. I'll try to take some decent ones after work tomorrow. The gloves and boots actually look like leather instead of whatever kind of weathering the factory paint did.
I put up a before and after/WIP of the gloves to show how horrible mine were. Not sure if I got unlucky or if everyone's looked like that.

HUGE thanks to Mus_musculus for saving one of my favorite book/TV characters.

 

[TheFiend]

Yeah, that's a massive difference. Much better. I'd like to see a pic where his eyes aren't in the shadows.

 

[Pixelpiper]

Strange the gloves look bigger/fuller with the repaint. I like them. I'm also liking the face repaint which removes that orange cast, but honestly, in most of the smaller photos it's very difficult to tell the face has been redone - easy in these last two.

I'll pop his head off later and take a picture. I had his head bowed slightly for the pose. His eyes are now green instead of the blue that 3Z did.

If I had 2 figures next to each other you could easily tell. The differences might be subtle from far off, but on the shelf I can see a huge difference to how it all was before. Here's one of Musculus's pictures before he got done with the repaint.




The main thing is that I'm happy with this figure now. I was a bit disappointed when I first got it. The clothes are excellent but the paint was a major letdown for me. Now I can really enjoy Ned.

 

[TheFiend]

Very nice pic up there. I think it's much better. One of these days I'll get it repainted.

 

[Pixelpiper]

Banner sample in, but a bit dark and less contrast than I want in the weathering. Going for another sample after some adjustments to the artwork and then production.

Still WIP, but I think it looks WAY more like Sean Bean now. This is by mus_musculus.

Fantastic work. Miles apart from the stock paint.

I was thinking the same thing. It almost doesn't look like the same sculpt.

I like that re-paint, really brings out the details in the sculpt. It makes me happy with the stock piece though too. While your repainted one looks superior, the stock one still looks pretty dang good next to it and I don't have the money to get a re-paint I think your version is the best it will get and the stock one looking pretty good next to it leaves me happy in the end Thanks for sharing the cool photos!!

[TheFiend]

Try Geewhiz. Lots of people use them and love 'em. I haven't so I can't give you much more info than that.

What exactly are you talking about when you say brown leather armor? Are you talking about the tunic Ned wears in Kingslanding?

[TheFiend]

Got it. Yeah, I would have really loved for them to have included that along with the HotK badge. Robb also wears that tunic under his armor.
