Title: Help with Vos face/head !
Post by: DmG on August 9, 2006, 04:04 PM
Hello all! I've just started customizing a few months ago and found my way from the FF to here! 

I'm more of a fan fic guy and this is why, I'll never be happy with a custom if I have to reproduce it from a pic rather then making it up!  ;D  I dont really like the head/face for him, so any suggestions on who to use would be very helpful!

Here is my reference pic.

How is it so far? All critique/helpful hints welcome!

Hey dude, very good parts choice! About the head, you're doing great. You just have to try and sculpt some hair on the Duke's head ;) Good luck with that!

Agreed. Very nice choice of part.  Sculpting the hair over the forhead, and mking it bigger on top than it its now, and flowing strands,  That would really make this work.

Also, if you really want to do some work, thin the jawline a bit... Its really square right now.

you've definetley made some good, and unique, parts choice's there. the head seems to becoming along nicely. on my vos, as many other have done, i used a modified eht koth head. but it is definetlet cool to see someone else use another.

since you are obviously familiar with gijoe figures hopefully you'll know which ones i'm talking about here, i have always thought that the spytoops figures scalpel(cobra medic) would make a great vos head, he has that great smoldering scowl thing going or spytroops barrel roll(gijoe hang glider sniper), he is very basic but with a tweak of the eyebrows he would make a very good vos. i actually may try to do a vos head from the scalpel now that i'm talking about it :D!

hope that helps with ideas. again what you have right now looks great and i can't wait to see more!
