Finished heads + Eastwood and Burton

Hi Guys,

Here are my alternate versions of eastwood and burton repainted to represent various roles they have played.

Also some of the heads I have finished (and basecoated white) ready for casting













All comments appreciated,

Cheers,
Peter.

Re: Finished heads + Eastwood and Burton

I like them all, your style has evolved a lot in the time you've been posting sculpts. I think they are becoming more subtle. I really like the Clint Eastwood Western style head. Reminds me of his role in Hang em High.
I think you nailed Richard Burton and it's really cool how you captured him for different looks. With the officers cap I'm reminded of the film The Desert Rats.
Bare headed, brown hair The Longest Day. And with the Para beret The Wild Geese.
All four of the unpainted heads are great. I would buy Robert Mitchum right off the mark. John Wayne, Kirk Douglas and Charles Bronson are excellent. While I already have figures who represent those three actors, I'd still be tempted to buy those as well.
cheers
Tim

Great stuff, Peter! I just recently re-watched (at least most of it. I dosed off near the end) For a Few Dollars More. That Clint Eastwood western one looks spot on.
