Agreed with all the guys

Kuato, awesome to see some progress! Thanks to everyone for the feedback. I too agree with sculpted hair.

Leathal Weapon 1.

 

[Mr.E]

Actually its bad posting, I just realized that I made a typo. It's "LETHAL Weapon", not LEATHAL

 

[JediMike71]

Count in my vote Chris for the longer hair Riggs had from the first Lethal Weapon movie! That's the one I want!

Do you have a separate thread for your Jack Burton - Big Trouble In Little China - Kurt Russell head sculpt? That's is another favorite movie of mine with Kurt with longer hair similar to Riggs' hair.

Thanks again!

That's a tough one here !
The expression is tricky. For now I see Christopher Walken, but the mouth/teeth area is freakin well sculpt. The hair will probably make the difference.

 

[Kuato]

Thanks Berphan, it is tricky, but this is where most of the inspiration came from https://www.wearysloth.com/Gallery/ActorsG/6518-11054.jpg eyes are wide as well as brow lifted, perhaps with some photoshop to the eyes and some eyebrows it can fill in the likeness?

I think the lack of eyebrows and hair is what might be throwing the likeness off.

 

[C-Phan]

Allright... now I see what you're trying to do. The eyebrows will add a lot to you sculpt.
Let see the rest now. If it helps some people :

 

[Kuato]

Thanks Jabba, thats what I was thinking too ;-) especially cause its hard for people to place the expression without his crazy eyes.

 

[MarfMaster]

Bravo for tackling such an off the wall expression Chris, you're off to a good start!

Amazing, excellent, really good. I can´t wait to see it finished. One of the best HS I´ve seen lately! And it has been a bunch of really good ones!!

 

[Kuato]

Thanks alot guys, Rider you are too kind. I just wanted to bring the essence and character of Riggs to the sculpt and thought a normal expression wouldnt do the trick so I took a leap of faith and surprisingly enough it hasnt been TOO difficult.

I´m just saying what I feel and believe, K. That is a great piece of art. Really magnificent and it is not even finished yet.

 

[JediMike71]

I really love that expression for Riggs Chris! I definitely want one of these head sculpt when you're done. Awesome work. I will paint him with that wide-eyed look like in the above picture from the movie. I agree that just a closed mouth head sculpt would have been just boring.

 

[galactiboy]

Great work Kuato! You have really come a long way in a short time with your sculpting

 

[Kuato]

Thanks guys!, This sculpt is being sent to a caster so I can work on the hair on top of a resin casting so I can get it right, hopefully new pics within a couple weeks.

Chris

looking forward to it!!!! looks great so far!, please add me to the orders list if your generating one.

I didn't see it in the pic of the sculpt by itself but with the side by side it became a lot clearer. I definitely think hair and eyebrows will make it more obvious still. I see you're going for manic, suicidal Riggs. Nice one.
