another Tyrion with much better paint job and tailoring

Much better paint job on a newer cast with darker hair and shorter neck (rough clothes and body sketch for the HP Lovecraft sculpture lurking in the background there)

ah cheers, yep Sculpey it is

Finally finished him: PM or email me if you want a full finished figure thought I'd sell them for £20 (EDIT: gonna need to shorten that neck I think) few more in the production line:

this is ace, I always prefer seeing the more unique charismatic character sculpts than the usual superhero ones

stunning work and sure as hell beats the Mattel official Mad Men dolls:

one of the best likenesses I've seen, incredible just as an aside, any opinions on 3d printing? I heard they can scan actors faces and just print them out in resin 12nch scale. Is that ever a worry in the industry putting top class scuptors out of work?

great likeness the good thing about doing a prolific actor is you can probably also do some other Pitt movie sculps from the same basic sculpture by just changing the hair

I did at first to save money on clay rather than anything else, but I found I had so much trouble trying to get his likeness frequent resculpts just meant I used a big lump in the end

love the wicked expression

cheers for the kind comments I realise how far I have to go looking at the talent on display here. It was seeing sculpts which linked back to this forum which inspired me to have a go with sculpting stuff I'm kind of hoping signing up here some of the talent and tips will rub off on me like...

you're probably right but the wife taught me how to create tiny curls on straight hair extensions by twisting/braiding and then boiling so it holds - if I can't pull it off I'll go back to plan a of sculpted hair. if its good enough and I'm happy with the end result I'll definetly offer some up...

ah cheers, I'm going to sculpt a rough torso shape to hang the clothes on and wire extensions for the arms and boots I've still yet to make. The clothes should cover the whole body structure hide the wiring.

Project to make a Tyrion Game of Thrones figure when he's done he'll have real tailored clothes, with removable armour and stand about 8 to 10 inches and cast in plaster/ or jesmonite resin. And if I pull off the hair plug idea he'll also have real hair Sculpey clay head this was...
