looking great man !

 

[lordmasterprince]

After a few times of tweeking and re-repaint , here is what it turns out. I am still not very happy with it . The nose is too big for sure. I think it will be easier to do it all over again from zero , rather than keep on making change to this one.
Well , what the heck !

Some in-helmet shot ......

And a GIF....

Dude, it's a much better start than I could ever hope for!

Can you give us some tips on how you did your repaint? I just got a loose facehugged head from eBay (about £18) and plan on repainting mine too. I'm disappointed not only in the current paint-job but also the sculpt - the head is too thin!!! I guess HT made it that way so the head/facehugger could fit inside the helmet.

Just spent about 2 hours and get this "SUCKER" repainted . May need some touch up on the hair ends a bit later , cause my eyes are quite tired now.

 

[Reinhardt]

mine shipped today from sideshow!!!

Actually I did post how I did this repaint. Anyways , here it is :

I used Tamiya --- Wooden Deck Tan spray paint TS-68 for the overall base colour of the whole head sculpt . I usually use this colour as the base of flesh . My approach would be trying to mimic the structure of the object that gives out the colour. In this case, what makes up the face hugger's colour would be a yellowish skin with some brown spots ,bones and vein showing through from under. I applied brown on all the recessed areas and a few places here and there. After it 's been dried , I put on layers of yellow on top. This action is to mount skin on the face hugger over all those internal body parts. You will find the yellow will not be able to cover all the colours underneth , and this is exactly what it should look like . After this I applied white to those knuckles and places where the bones protruding , stretching the skin. Then another thin layer of yellow to softly blend the skin together. Finally a few coats of FUTURE floor wax to seal the face hugger and makes her moist and slimy.
It sounds complicated but once you get the idea, it is quite easy and fun to do.

I just sculpted a new Kane headsculpt myself and I tell you, it's tricky; I held up a Dallas headsculpt up to a Hicks headsculpt and the scale seems to me to be slightly smaller, and it's pretty difficult trying to sculpt the headcover and ensure it can be installed easily into the helmet of the spacesuit. Not an easy sculpt at all and you are to be admired for giving it a go.
