Ben Linus from LOST by Nek74

[Maglor]

Oh, if my wife only knew the crazy shenanigans I'm up to when I'm left alone on a Friday night!

Nice work Yo!



Which Jack is that?

Thanks Mag.

You mean Jack's head? It's from a recent Navy Seal: jungle figure (I forget which company?). It's the camo head in this pic -

 

[Maglor]

Cool. He actually works really well for Jack!

 

[YoNoSe]

I like him. Nek74 also offers a great Jack sculpt.

Okay, last pic for the weekend. I added a little foam around the middle so his shirt doesn't look so baggy and a t-shirt to hide the neck joint (though Ben is a tank-top kinda guy).

I'm off to do some pre-spring cleaning and to go see Rango! Have a great weekend LOST Freaks!

 

[Maglor]

Love it! Great work!

I have found this sculpt to be both inspired and inspiring. That being the case I banged one out over the weekend. More pictures coming after I can get them off the other camera.

Those eyes are awesome

He looks real. I can't wait to see more pictures!

Your paint job is inspiring as well!

Thanks everyone! I've been refining how I approach eyes recently so the feedback is especially rewarding. I'll be able to post pics of the full head once I get them off the camera tonight. (I'm test running a camera but it doesn't talk to Win7 so I need the g/f's Mac. It's a whole thing.)

 

[YoNoSe]

Well whatever you're doing, it's working. There's some real depth there.

Here's the full head. It's a great sculpt with a lot going on! And I have to give it to Anthony, the neck hole was drilled so well that the head can be snuggly and securely applied to a Hot Toys neck stump without glue. More pictures in my show off thread.

 

[AllisonAmy]

He looks great!

Thanks!

I am doing a trio of heads for a fellow board member (should take a week?), but then I can start in on the other Bens I have which is killing me because I am dying to do a "post-altercation" Linus.

There's just something about Michael Emerson's face that makes me want to add bruises to it.

 

[AllisonAmy]

I'm looking forward to seeing him a little beaten up. You did an especially incredible job on his eyes. I was just admiring your work, again.

Here's the Ben I painted up for Nek. I was really itching to see what I could do by way of paint up a battered Ben and, luckily enough, he wanted to see that too.

 

[YoNoSe]

AWESOME!

 

[Wor-Gar]

Battered Ben is best!
