AF-FIRMATIVE!
Well, might as well start posting a few of my Sideshow related custom works in here.
First up, a 1939 style Joker made with a Sideshow 12" Phantom of the Opera SSE figure base and head and some really cool gangster clothes I found.
I know Joker was introduced in 1940, but I am working on a project and it's set in 1939...so this Joker has to be a part of it! More to come of this kind of thing...
To start, here he is with my 1939 style Batman...
And a before and after shot....
And too close...
Resculpted facial areas and hair with Magic Sculpt two part epoxy putty and painted with Model Master Acryl acrylic enamels. I based him on several references, from the silent film The Man Who Laughs with Conrad Veidt, the facial image that actually helped inspire the Joker, and from Tim Curry's famous mouth and expressions and of course, the base face of Lon Chaney, a man I bet that would have loved to have played this character if he'd lived long enough and had the chance.
Enjoy!
