i tried to make sure the eye makeup was slightly compromised like in the movie and some red around the lips is hinted at in tiny smears on the teeth - like real clown makeup would. all the action in the sculpt sort of brought me to this conclusion. the spears under the eyes are actually a bit longer, but the expression belies it a bit. i didn't want o give a consistent tone around the mouth because it makes the lips look more chapped which is always a sign a person is 'bad' in visual speak (perfect example is phillip seymour hoffman as freddy lounds in red dragon - his lips look awful).

Pennywise and Myers look great! One point though is that Pennywise's eyes are blue (when not demon red and yellow)... and looks like they're brown in your pics.

Yeah me and 8bit talked about that and it was hard to tell from pics so I told him to do whatever he thinks looks right. I actually thought they were brown too lol
 
Re: [R.I.P. Workshop] subject57, riot zombie, mad bug myers, acid pennywise

in this reference the eyes look brown or very dark, but your reference is so large and bright. my mistake.

cool. it just took some futzing with. i was sooo tired when i posted last night. i think i was just happy to have completed the wigging and didn't notice the flat appearance ;) i washed a bit of color through the hair to give it some tonal differences too.

I was just lucky in finding a cache of these promo images... I don't think any are directly from the film, but stills. But they are helpful for getting the little details.

You nailed the rest of it and the Acid Face is especially gruesome... I've got one in my queue so I'll be referencing yours :lol

thank a lot :) the sentiment is much appreciated.

WELL..., I don't share a lot of personal information on this forum, but feel this is necessary. Let me preface this by saying I live in an old house (read: historic district by definition but that's debatable). I woke up to the feint sound of running water. Usually this is just a case of an ill-placed magazine on the toilet, slightly depressing the handle, leaving the water to run. This time, however, it was a water main break right outside my house, literally on the other side/underneath of the poured concrete porch (endless retrofits happen in old houses - mine is over 100 years old). Anyways, the basement was flooded so I made a few calls and got to work cleaning up the water as best i could. It was pretty horrible. Long story short, many hours later, the water is pretty much dried up (no thanks to the shut-off valve outside which was blocked by tree roots and/or debris - i had to wait for the city to come out despite every pertinent person being in an hour long meeting). I have no water at the moment, so I'm staying at a hotel close enough to take care of my animals that are still at home with potable water and foodstuffs. The estimate is $10k and my insurance company, at this juncture, is trying to not pay. Anyways, not a pity party - i can afford it thankfully. I was hoping to buy a 3D printer with my severance, but that will have to wait :/

Anyways, just letting people know I am sort of in & out of my house at the moment until Friday or so.

I did manage to find some time before this to revise the paint apps on our Ghost Dog figure and I have a lot of work that's almost ready to be photographed and/or completed. I won't be shipping anything out this week unfortunately. Things should be back to relative normalcy next week I hope :)

Re: [R.I.P. Workshop] subject57, riot zombie, mad bug myers, acid pennywise

Sorry to hear about that mate. Hope things look up soon.
 
Re: [R.I.P. Workshop] subject57, riot zombie, mad bug myers, acid pennywise

Damn, sorry to hear about your house... a flooded basement/house is no good! Hopefully your insurance company is forced to come through.

On the plus side Ghostdog looks great, not sure all of what you changed but he looks spot-on :rock
