Well, it's been a little while since I shared anything new...got a bunch of commissions nearly completed including Gollum from the Rankin Bass Hobbit film and a MCU Yellow Jacket for Marvel Legends. Those should be wrapped by week's end (fingers crossed) and then a Marty McFly custom...but for today, I have two new DC movie customs: First up is a new Brandon Routh from Superman Returns. He's made from (appropriately so) a MM Superman. As usual, I sculpted the entire suit, only leaving the shoulders and hands untouched. Tried to sculpt as many of the minute details as possible, especially on the boots which can be seen in the detail pic below. Not a super difficult custom to make, but I wanted it to look as factory as possible. I realize the face still screams Henry Cavill, but I think I changed the hair enough to make it distinguishable...AND considering the fact that Cavill was very nearly cast for Superman Returns, this works for me. Thanks for looking!

The sculpt is killer clean as always. I am impressed with the boots. Regarding the head, while the hairdo is spot on, still looks too much like Cavill. Perhaps a 6" gimmick figure superman returns head? if painted right, the likeness to Brandon Routh is decent. Anyway, just a thought, and not aserious critique, the figure overall is amazing.

Hey Ringo! Always love your work brother! Yeah, I can't argue with you about the face. I bought a 6" gimmick Routh figure, but the head was just too big as the figure is about 7" tall in reality. I could have gotten away with it if I'd used a DCUC base figure, but since it was a MOS Movie Masters, try as I might, it just wouldn't work...unless I'd carved the face off and grafted it in to the Cavill head...and I ain't good at that sort of thing Thanks so much for stopping by!
