It's slow going, but REALLY fun and I get a thrill watching the transformation take place, slowly but surely going beyond what I could normally think of myself making (which is pretty much zilch, zip zero nada..) and so, here are a few pictures of my work in progress....
<img border=0 src="https://sideshowweta.nemonint.com/photoalbum/projects/faramir/faramir-14.jpg" />
I spent a day or two on the face. Starting from <a href="https://sideshowweta.nemonint.com/photoalbum/projects/faramir/faramir-01.jpg" target="_new">this very abstract looking head</a>, then I experienced <a href="https://sideshowweta.nemonint.com/photoalbum/projects/faramir/faramir-04.jpg" target="_new">a momentary vision of Darth Sidius</a>.
Then I got it to something reasonable of a <a href="https://sideshowweta.nemonint.com/photoalbum/projects/faramir/faramir-08.jpg" target="_new">face-on-the-front-of-a-head</a>, followed by the mashing of a whole bunch of stuff around the bottom of an inverted plastic cup.
Then <a href="https://sideshowweta.nemonint.com/photoalbum/projects/faramir/faramir-09.jpg" target="_new">I stuck the head on without the hair</a>.
Later after giving the body a bit of a shape and slightly smoothing out the surface, I scratched a bit of <a href="https://sideshowweta.nemonint.com/photoalbum/projects/faramir/faramir-11.jpg" target="_new">the clothing design into the body</a>.
And so here it is just about exactly (not totally) as it is <a href="https://sideshowweta.nemonint.com/photoalbum/projects/faramir/faramir-13.jpg" target="_new">at this moment</a>.

edit - actually that's wrong, that pic with the brick wall above is from a day ago. I've worked on it since then a bit.. the pic of it on the car is the latest look..

Here's the <a href="https://sideshowweta.nemonint.com/photoalbum/projects/faramir/faramir-16.jpg" target="_new">facial closeup</a>!
I kept this project under wraps since I started about 6 days ago or thereabouts, but I have seen a lot of great stuff online today that made me want to post this.
