All of the original factory paint was removed from the HS and the hair cut off and more Johnny Depp-esque features were sculpted. The dreads are made from Caron Simply Soft Quick yarn. Body was given a tan base coat after a base coating of Modge Podge. The tatoo was drawn onto excess clear sticker paper, put on Jack's arm, and enhanced with acrylic paint. Jack's clothes were all done by hand after extensive research and screencapping. Will's shirt was modified into Jack's. The compass was is a scaled down model of a 1:1 paper model and actually opens. The weapons were all modified. The original Zizzle boots were repainted. The majority of Jack's beads are hand-made as are his rings and palm glove which are removable. Jack is as screen accurate as possible. Hidden detail: in a deleted scene from Curse of the Black Pearl, Jack shows Elizabeth scars on his chest and right arm- I included those scars on my Jack.
This attempt was completed in 2008. Another attempt is on the horizon.;D
