Re: 1/6 Indy Customizations: Image Thread
It seems you've spent so much time debating on this thread that you missed William Shatner's Toupee explaining what has taken the time. Indy is not the only head he has sent to be printed. There have been defects in some of the prints and he's hanging fire till everything is sorted. Indy wasn't actually one of the defective ones, but, I can understand his caution.
Better everything comes back hunky dory and we all get the best heads. Nothing to panic about!

I am always looking for the best sculpt, same as you, I just happen to think the honors consistently go to Trevor.
And to say that the HT sculpt is as good as any one of Trevor's sideshow sculpts, whether it be the 1/6, Raiders 1/4 or ToD 1/4 is just...sorry, all bias aside, I can't take that seriously.

Re: 1/6 Indy Customizations: Image Thread
Trev's sculpts are the best. They are a bit oversized for HT style bodies and the Raiders 1/6 one was made of some nuclear shiny plastic unfortunately.

Re: 1/6 Indy Customizations: Image Thread
It's not so bad when you strip the paint off. I'm hanging fire on mine till I see the WGP ones. I can wait.....

Re: 1/6 Indy Customizations: Image Thread
I am also using Trevor's sculpt for my Indy. Here is a quick shot, I was in the right place at the right time.

Re: 1/6 Indy Customizations: Image Thread
I'm really late to the party, but here is a custom Indy I've been working on on and off for the last year. It's not finished, but is very close. I am getting an mfisher whip and still need to attach the head (it's attached by tape at the moment)
Jacket weather detail:
Recipe:
Head: Paul Carson
Headpaint: smallstudios
neck removal and chest paint: SilentSurfer
Jacket, shirt, gloves, belt: Hot Toys
Pants, bag, whip: Sideshow
Shoes: not sure
Belt with gun holster: mfisher
Jacket and gloves weathering: me
I also added some quarters and dimes in the lining of the jacket to give it some weight and fall better.

He looks awesome, Neehar!  That is truly a one of a kind gem you have there with that sculpt/paint combo, especially with the excellent Job Nathan did dremmeling/paint matching.

Re: 1/6 Indy Customizations: Image Thread
Thanks Dane! You beat me to it, I was going to say that Nathan did a phenomenal job matching the head to the neck. He also painted some chest hairs which look very realistic. I'll take some good pictures once he is done.

You win!
The best Indy I've ever seen, just needs a little stubble on the neck.
