SSC 1/6 ROTJ Emperor and Throne

[Customikey]

I have to go back and fix the eyes on the commissioned repaint. As i was painting my own set, I realized my mistake with the eyes. Ugh! I can't believe I did that!!!

Anyway, here's how mine turned out.

Here's how I display the extra head...

Awesome display
Maybe you can make something so you can display the cane horizontal under the head :

That is the Emperor. Awesome job.

That's cool. You should look for some material to create just the hood on that display. To me, the sculpts just look weird without the hood.

 

[Customikey]

Glad you guys like the repaint. I'll take some pics with the alternate head so it doesn't look so odd.

Again, the pink around the eyes REALLY makes it look like the Emperor. Nice job!

 

[Customikey]

Thanks, Jediknight120. Of all the Emperors I've painted, I'm most happy with these apps. Took a while to get it just right.

Ok. The hood makes the difference. Nice work Mikey.

Damn Mikey he looks WICKED! :emperor

Is it the fall of the light? Or is his left pupil not as dark as it's right?

Glad you asked. It's the light.

Even if it wasn't the light, Ian's contacts were doing some funky Marty Feldman type things in RotJ.

What ever do you mean

[Customikey]

I think it's that slightly wall-eyed aspect that sells the regular head when repainting.

 

[MaulFan]

I think what really helps is making the iris pop from the rest, that's the one real issue I have with the production paint, they blend with the whites and lack the pop that his real contacts have. Yours work great Mikey, I was waiting for someone to repaint this head and really clear up that problem.

Excellent custom Mikey! That photo is insane!

Even if it wasn't the light, Ian's contacts were doing some funky Marty Feldman type things in RotJ.

Not in this case, the Marty Feldman eyes are only available on Vader 1:1 Shaw head.
