One of the things I decided bothers me is the totally unglamorous sleeves of the emperors robes. They show NO definition at all and really, no matter how you pose the arms, you can't tell what he's doing, because you can't see his arms.. Sideshow's material really need more weight.

Anyway, to fix this I sewed the sleeves shut under his arms, to show definition and make him look even slimmer.

And a comparison, it's almost exactly the same pose, but you can see way more of the pose with the new sleeves, it still needs a little fune tuning, but it will look alot better and less puffy!

WHAT a fantastic modification. It just about changes the whole figure! Most impressive your powers are. He wasn't high on my to get list but with your changes i will now reconsider. Thanks for sharing

I am sorry but I have to ask. What is in that blue bowl. I would say sour cream but the other bowl looks like it had chicken soup in it.

Thanks for the awesome compliment!

I agree, I was terribly dissapointed with the figure when I got it. I was like. WTF. 100$ and you can't even tailor his robes properly? It's like HIS ONLY cloth.

And the headsculpt had to be adjusted to make him menacing, hate the stock sculpt, I see what they were going for, but it just didn't work IMO.

May I ask what you did to the head sculpt to improve it so much. He really looks like he is straight out of the movie.
