IDK if you put ears on imhim or not I just cant tell. But it looks good. The big head style is not bad just unique...

Looks good. I don't mind the big head at all. It's nice to see something a little different every once in a while and as yo uget more experience you will continue to improve so keep on experimenting because so far so good. It's also cool that you took the time to modify the parts to better suit Silva rather than just using stock parts that don't fit his body type at all. The logos, as always, look awesome. I really dig your painting style and attention to detail. Keep up the good work.

i hate the big heads, but just cause i don't like a certain style doesn't mean its bad work. it resembles him and the painting is solid.

Your logos look great! Very nice!  I have no idea who he is, or what he looks like, so I can't comment on that, but I like the torso modding. Realistic musculature and nice paint app. The feet look pretty clunky though...  Just curious, what made you stick with the large heads? Easier to sculpt a larger size? Wars |

Great job Sandy, I love it. Did you paint the backside? I didn't see any pics of the back?
Great job nonetheless. Head looks really good, paint job is superb, and logos are well done.

I just added some new pictures of the full sculpt I am working on. The head sculpt was done months ago. I like it. It does indeed have its flaws but I love challenging myself with full sculpt. I will continue to do so even if it means me being the only one who enjoys them.

I'm loving the full sculpt. I think it is your best head sculpt. It's a very clever idea as well. I always liked that picture. Keep up the good work. Can't wait to see it finished.

The throne sculpt is looking amazing so far. You've been at that one what, 2-3 months now? Haha. I can't wait to see it done. Great job so far. Last time i saw a proto pic of this it was wayyyyyyyy in the early stages. Great job thus far.

I will continue to do so even if it means me being the only one who enjoys them. You know damn well that you aren't, bro. It looks good. You can definitely see resemblance but, it's still "off". Ya know? Not trying to crapon your parade. FHS' are  ing TOUGH. Good luck, Sandy. Holla at me when you finish this one, I don't come here too often. |

Amazing! I like seeing FHS, actually any sculpting at all! I don't like the size of the head, but I couldn't even do what you did to begin with, so not trying to bash you. The painting looks good!

I dont see how this is really chunky, why dont you explain your answer to why it is chunky and maybe give tips to how make this figure better if you think its chucky because I dont see anything from with the figure just make the ears pop out abit more and maybe clean up the tapout logo on the back. but I seriously cant see why its chunky{maybe you think the yellow is chunky, but yellow is hard to work with. anyway great job on the silva its a great custom and very good painting also the chair sculpt of silva is coming along great, well done. |

Like I said when I saw the work in progress, I really like that GSP. I think the head fits him very well. Good likeness all around. The ab modification is really well done as well. It captures his wierdly distended abs. The feet also look a million times better than usual. You are really refining your sculpting and improving quickly. Suprisingly, I believe the one drawback to this figure is the tights painting (mainly just the UFC logo on the back). Maybe it is the picture quality, but it seems a little rushed. That being said, the painting is really not bad at all. I just know you can do better. The only reason I even pointed it out is because I know how talented you are when it comes to painting. Overall another quality custom. Keep 'em coming.

thanks irish. You definately notice the small things which I appreciate. I did modify GSP's abs because he always looks extremely stocky on the day of his fights. The tights I actually do enjoy but the back was a little rush but doesn't look nearly as bad as it does in that picture. I think the main problem is that I painted over an old custom and didn't take the time to fully remove all the paint.
But thanks again.
