Custom Lucius Fox Thread

I think it's three minor factors that are throwing it off.
The upper eyelids. His brow folds over, concealing most of the upper lid. The sculpt missed this.
The tip of the nose is a bit too pointed. Also the bridge is a bit too thin and the transition from the bridge into the cheeks is too harsh.
Morgan's lips don't seem to be so drawn out. I think the mouth is a bit to wide. This also makes his lips appear too thin.

I cant believe how picky we are all getting with sculpts, these pieces are all hand sculpted not laser scanned.

Amen, brother! Glad someone finally said it.

Yet we've all seen hand sculpted pieces that are spot on and accurate. So that arguement holds no weight. If you're the type of person who accepts and settles on whatever is presented to you, fine. But you need to understand other people aren't like that.

I can offer up numerous examples of collectibles that were improved from both mainstream companies AND private customizers because of constructive criticism. Now if everyone would've been like you, and said nothing, that would'nt have happened.

There's a big difference between nitpicking and constructive criticism. If you can't distinguish between the two, that's your problem.

Very good points sovereign! I'll post your post in the custom thread so Z can have a look and maybe try to modify.

Glad to be of some help. Caught TDK on HBO earlier. It seems Morgan's eyes do often look like the sculpt. So, that's accurate either way. Seems when he does cocky, smarta$$ expressions (as Lucius often does) he raises his brow, which raises that fold that conceals his upper lids when relaxed. It could go either way and be right, I just think he'd look better with a more contemplative expression.

is this the one that FMLes had in his custom batman figures video?

 

[Devil_666]

No. That sculpt is from Ada.

Final version as posted in the customs section. Guys those that still want in on this please contact Z directly (see the thread in the custom comissions section).

ok guys I have made a few more minor adjustments to the sculpt, and this is the final version, I will be casting and painting it soon, cheers

 

[intothevoid]

Forgot to add that I think this looks amazing

Can't wait to have it in hand and see painted pics!!

 

[billy2374]

Amazing work Z!!!!!!! Can't wait to get mine!

 

[intothevoid]

hey guys just finished painting the test piece, I will paint the eyes straight for you all, I just prefer this direction for displaying. I will get them done soon, and ship as soon as they are ready, cheers

For those that haven't seen this - AWESOME work by Z IMO. Can't wait to put together my custom!

 

[blakus939]

Looks pretty sick, i think the hair could use a little more darker details and the eyes should definately be straight, but other than that, pretty dang nice!

 

[intothevoid]

Yeah well you can ask him to paint the eyes any direction you like, as for the hair, I believe these pics were taken with flash so in hand it probably looks more accurate.

 

[stmod0568]

Very good sculpt, however I agree that the eyes should be straight

Fox from Batman Begins. I think it's spot on.

Wow, looks great!

I appreciate the work that goes into this stuff but I don't see why anyone would want a 1/6 scale Lucius Fox figure, or Alfred for that matter. Don't get me wrong I love the characters in the films but why even bother with action figures of them. Gordon I can see, especially considering how important his role is in Begins and TDK. Like Dent/Two-Face he actually interacts with the main characters, Batman and The Joker and is interesting enough to make a figure of.

I see alot of wish lists, from 1/6 HT figures to Mattel's Movie Masters line. Almost everyone has Fox and Alfred listed. I just don't get it. I don't think I'm shallow I just don't see the appeal of them as action figures.

 

[blakus939]

I've always agreed, and which is why i wouldnt even want Gordon either lol!
