It lives !!!

Some major futzing to do there with the head hair. But have a look back through this thread.

Still the best Chewie they have made.

Totally agree, it's pretty much the reason I decided to get into HT and 1/6 scale. I never thought anyone would be able to make a good looking Chewie with hair.

Damn, I got a bottle of https://www.amazon.com/dp/B018R2DD42/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_EB6gDbZ93DCV8 from amazon but I haven’t tried it yet

Just be extra careful when applying it on the material. Good luck!

oh definitely-this is my 3rd!

Has anyone tried lightening some of the hair around Chewie's face to make him look more screen accurate?

 

[Sardo Numspa]

Many people have... you'd have to go back through the thread... unless there is a specific Chewie mod thread, but I can't remember.

Random question.

Has anyone ever removed the fur suit from a Hot Toys Chewbacca ? I'm after pattern to make another fur suit myself. Or to remove my own and make a pattern from that.Just removal seems not so easy. Thought there would be a zip at the back.

I did. ��

I revamped the whole figure. New sculpted head, new fur bodysuit and added mohair piece by piece to the head.

 

[dukefett]

Wow that's fantastic!

 

[D.R.37]

Wow... Very nice!

 

[Dave_W]

Now THAT is a Chewbacca!

 

[matrix69]

Beautiful work Paul...now email those shots off to HT as they might help inspire them to release a better looking Chewie...

 

[D.R.37]

^^Please do.

Thank you for your kind words Guys, I'd happily send this to them and advise for a better figure for all. There are little , subtle changes that would be easy to implement with the process they have.

That?s one of the best mods I?ve ever seen, absolutely spot on with the likeness. It sounds like your process in a way matches how the Freeborns did Chewie and mirrors what happened on TFA where they stuffed it up, and started from scratch going back to the way the did it on the first film.
