Pretty sweet,you will have a decent little figure at the end of this.

Great paint job!

Is it a recast of the Sideshow head or maybe Gentle Giant?

The only issue is that the irises seem a bit small, but very lifelike paint-up.

Nice Lando Skin tone has gone into the eyes some which makes the irises smaller as Talibane states but great looking custom.

Thanks !

I will take a closer look at some pictures of Lando regarding size of the iris

Actually I don’t know what head that is - it was a resin cast offered on eBay

Yeah, it's a recast of the Gentle Giant mini bust head - which had pretty atrocious paint, so you've done the sculptor a favor!

It looks way better on your custom than it did on the statue.

It isn't a touch undersized for 1/6? I always found that GG bust heads were closer to 1/7, not 1/6 as advertized, but I guess a recast could be smaller or larger than the original.

Shaping up to be impressive. I agree with the others, paint job looks great

Re: Custom Lando General Pilot WIP

Thanks!
Size of this one is perfect in my opinion. But could have more detail - especially around the eyes

Great work on this. Really like it. I was very tempted when I first saw the Geewhiz custom clothing and now I really fancy a set.
