The head arrived from China today, it's very well made in hard plastic with exceptional detail.
Unpainted was the better choice as the charge almost 35 quid for a painted version and that would mean correctional work anyway.

I'll get started on this at the weekend I expect.

Cheers

Excellent quality, I’m impressed with the finish. I’m really looking forward to seeing your progress. If there’s anything I can do please give me a shout (sleeping isn’t so easy for me anymore so I’m usually awake-ish) also if you still need some procreate or find sculpting/painting too hard and want me to have a go, I’m happy to help.

Thank you Andrew,

I'm going to try some hot manipulation on the ear first, as I have been advised on a method that I believe I can work with.

It may end up that a little bit of the epoxy type stuff would be used if any sudden holes appear.

As for painting, I may just get a non-toxic permanent marker set and colour him in, leaving flesh untouched.

It's exciting, more so as Ciarán doesn't have a clue about it.

Cheers

Ry
