    I think you have done a fantastic job Mike...right down to his slightly raised eyebrow. The mouth is certainly Steve's. I'm looking forward to seeing your other one too.

          I have to say, if you posted that this was an original prototype from the 70's I might believe it. It looks very authentic.

          The most amazing part, however, is the "vinyl" head! That is a fantastic discovery! And based on the description, Bionic-Joe sculpted it? Great work by everyone involved in this figure.

          Oh, and if your Photoshop file gets too layer heavy, an easy thing to do is break it up into different files, so once you have the background the way you want it, duplicate the file, save the original with layers (so you can go back into if you need) and then flatten the duplicate and add your photos or type or whatever to the copy. If you want to change something in the background later, you can go back to the original layered file.
          Expectation is the death of discovery.

            That looks really great. The head is great and outstanding idea and job on the stickers.

              Excellent!!!!!!!!!!! Good Job on all of it. The packageing,uniform, head sculpt, and material used for head sculpt.

              I love that the flesh color doesn't have to be painted.

                    I think Joe would also be willing to handle head shrinking and remolding existing custom heads into the special plastic (but check with him to make sure).

                          I was waiting for you to chime in I remember your bionic figures, good job!

                          FYI, Bionic Joe is at work on a John Saxon head and I know someone here has a Richard Anderson head (I forget who) so there are opportunities on the way for additional figures.
