    Question WIP - Ramirez mark 2

    Thanks for all the input on my previous post.
    I got this connery head a little while ago to use as Ramirez but wasn't entirely happy with it. Anyway, i've done a bit of work on it and would like your opinions again.
    Does this one work better?

    New pictures on next page.

    That one is absolutely spot on. THis should be a great figure. Are you going to shrink the head or go 1/6 scale? IN either case, that's a terrific start. I'd love to paint a cool head like that, though I've never attempted that scale before. Cool stuff.

    I will be shrinking it to 8", the head is actually a little smaller than other 1/6 heads.
    Copies will be available if anyone is interested.

    Ian, in your experience do you find it is easier to shrink than to enlarge a sculpt?

    I find it alot easier to shrink sculpts.

    Quite a few heads i've enlarged over the last few months have gotten too big in the water and when i take them out to reduce down again they split open.

    It's also easier to work on bigger heads than small ones.
