Best 1/6 JEDI LUKE sculpt/re-sculpt?

[Dorgmal Snow]

I'd be willing to take a look at it if anyone had a Sideshow Luke head they would be willing to let me borrow ?

Hi Paul I have a Luke Bespin if that is any help?

nice head and great painted

I never quite understand why every one thinks the Jedi Luke head is oversized..

alright, so it's a *bit* too big, but certainly not terrible, nor huge..

 

[drod26]

Any interest on this?

 

[Caohanach]

I'm interested.

 

[eczamurai]

wouldn't casting the jedi luke sculpt be a good idea? Ive got one if some one would cast it.. Because ive been told theres a 5 % shrinkage when you cast a sculpt..

 

[Yodacappy]

Very interested to seeing what comes of this. I've always hated the deer in the headlights look myself.

gonna send paul a pm to see what, if anything he's got going on.

I saw him last year at WonderCon. I can vouch for Sideshow's head being quite accurate in size.

Anyone able to cast the Jedi Luke head might work, sculpts tend to shrink when cast if Im not mistaken

not unless it is cast incorrectly... using silicone rubber molds and casting resin will generally give you an exact 3-dimensional replica of the item being cast, unless you use some sort of shrinking agent on the silicone mold, don't know if that's possible... I mean maybe if you had some sort of "Leprechaun juice" or something...

I'm sure there are some materials that could be used that would shrink, but they'd probably be something other than silicone/resin (that's what I use, no shrinkage as far as I know or can tell)

Leprchaun juice.

polyester resin when the ratio's are altered will produce some shrinkage...10-15%

anyone able to recast my jedi luke sculpt like that?

 

[eczamurai]

anyone?...

 

[Dorgmal Snow]

Hell I will give it a go. The shrinkage can be a pain sometimes but I thinks this will work to our advantage.

Just waiting to get some more silicon then we will see.
