    My lifesize General Grievous sculpt

    Hello all!
    Finally I finished the head and the neck. I had to resculpt the collar and It istill needs some sanding work and the details.
    The screws are not the accurate. I have to change them.:happy
    I hope you like it! (Sorry for the crapy pics, I promise I will take better.)

    front:

    lateral:

    Back.


    Hand:

    Here you can see the size. It is huge! (He killed a jedi sculptor for
    this saber! )



    Please let me know your opinions.
    Regards.

    Hi:
    It is carved in polyestyre foam and then covered with epoxy A+B and then lots of bondo.
    For the neck and collar there are wooden parts for structure and they were covered with fibergalss and lots of bondo.

    Thank you all for your kind words.
    I am workin on arms and torso.

    It's coming along very nicely. I've been watching your progress on TPZ too. I meant to tell you that I took some photos of the Grevious mock-up at the Star Wars Science exhibition if you want to see them. PM your email and I'll send you some pics.

    ... and finally it is painted...
    Here are some pics. Let me know if you want them in a higher definition.
    It took its time because it's a marbled texture.
    I also added the "microphones".







    Some details:


    The eyes are provisory, they will be replaced with hand painted acrilic ones:


    I hope you like it!

    Let me know your opinions.
    It is for sale in the Cargo Hold!

    Thank you for all your words.
    I am an engeneer but I love sculpting since I was a child. I never studied modeling but I recomend it because I wouldn't spend hours of work and money trying different techniques and materials.
    I started sculpting replica props since last year (I was 30).

    I changed the sculpted eyes with new hand painted acrilic eyes.
    I had to modify the interior face plate so I could make an access to the eyes to replace them.
    Here are the results:


    I've been playing with my camera and the lighting...












    In the darkness...

    I hope you like it.

    That looks intense xD. Can you take a pic next to a mando helmet or something to give us an idea of the size of the head? That looks great. Mathew Wood would be proud xD.

    Yes this is true, and before this gets out of hand, Martin is in some HOT WATER over at the RPF for taking money from members and staff and not making good on his sale, This was for Cystal Skull Run from Indy 4 and I'm afraid he's comming here to test the waters to try and sell this Item or a Run on it as well. I'm not here to start a FLAME WAR but Admin Please watch this one closely........
