To go with my Chris Reeves Superman a Gene Hackman Lex Luthor. I worked on it all day today and it’s almost ready for molding. This was with out a doubt the hardest face I’ve done; I almost gave up a few times.  |

Now your talkin'! This was worth the effort and I'm glad you didn't throw in the towel. Brilliant!
It will be thrilling to see you move this through to completion.
If you get around to Miss Tessmacher I think Jason's head will explode.

Hey now there is a great looking likeness that I don't think has ever been done before.
I agree - if you do a Valerie Perrine - all of our heads will explode.

Another killer sculpt. Great stuff. The old Mego 12 Inch kinda pseudo movie series included a Luthor with a comic book style costume, a bald head, but a sorta Hackman likeness. This obviously tops that big time. Stunning stuff. This could also be the basis for maybe a Popeye Doyle custom or even a POSIEDEN ADVENTURE custom too. Amazing!!

Wow! Very skillfully done. And as Scot said, very rarely seen. This is a worthwhile project. But only if you follow up with MISS TESSMACHER!! And maybe Otis.  C. |

Thanks to all! Yea, the nose gave me hell. Also the hair is a bit more tame, I never realized how puffy Hackman hair was in the first movie. Miss Teschmacher huh? Well I don’t know about that...but did you ever notice this in the “Costa Del Lex map” scene?  |

That's another incredible headsculpt, my man. The likeness is dead-on, and once he's in in an ugly 70's suit, will look spot perfect next you Chris Reeve. Any chance we'll se a General Zod/Terence Stamp?
You should cast that head and make a Popeye Doyle from the French Connection ;D

Thanks again I appreciate it!
Luthor will be fully clothed by the end of the week, It’s really looking good now thanks to dear old mom’s sewing skills. Should have pictures soon.
