Very nice. The sculptor did a good job capturing that "young West" look.

Scot! that looks excellent! easily the best likeness done to date, makes me want to quit my 12"  The forehead, browe and nose areas are absolutely dead on, and the strong jaw with the sunken cheeks gives just the right manly & handsome look which West was known for. I can't really tell about the lips while they are unpainted but at a glance they appear a tad full and semi dramatic. This in no way takes away from the sculpt or likeness as i said, this is the best I've seen thus far and I cannot wait to see it painted. I am still willing to collaborate on a cowl for you on this head if you choose. You can PM me if interested. Thanks for the peek broh.  Will |

Very nice! I assume there will be a bit more detail in the hair but it looks very much like him to me. I haven't studied West's face all that well, so I don't know the nuances unpainted like you guys do. But he looks pretty good to me. ;D

Very nice- lots of subtle sculpting that makes it work as a great likeness. How I envy the talent involved in getting something like this done so well.
It will be exciting to see it painted! Keep us posted!

Great work from your sculptor. I can't wait to see him finished. From what you've shown here it certainly looks like him. Keep us up on how this project is going. Are you planning on a Bruce or an unmasked Batman. I'd like to see him maybe in a sports jacket with a crest on the pocket and a cravat with an open shirt and slacks with a Shakespeare bust type of thing. Maybe on the Batphone in his study. Great stuff fella.

I am planning on an accessory-heavy 'deluxe' packaged boxed set that will hopefully feature one of Mr. Wayne's 60's suits as well as the famous costume, and a couple other goodies. I am now trying to decide between packaging styles, open window, or opening flap like a BBI doll. or something else entirely. May need to get with Anthony on this one!

I received the head today, cast in flesh colored resin, drilled for Dragon style bodies. The wait was worth it - the scale and size is great.

Not being lazy but that pic above is exactly the head. same color, everything. I'll get some new ones when I mount it on a body. Plus I'm going to do a quick paint job on it tomorrow. Stay tuned.
