Ugh tapatalk lost my attachments when I switched apps. I just realized that Gohan had a haircut in the back and I have screwed up the area behind his ears.

Dude. Gohan is gonna look like a bad@$$. Honestly. Once you fix the back of the hair, like you mentioned, he'll be great! The only thing that's throwing me off is the front bang... I don't even know what is either. Maybe too long? Or too far away from his eyes? Idk. But like I said, looking great!

Whether right or wrong, it's a good display of sculpting. Maybe the front bang could be centered more. Btw, I hate Matthew McConaughey. An annoying prick.
Sorry to hear that shiffty

This seems like pretty good reference for the hair. www.ebay.com/itm/Banpresto-Dragon-Ball-Dragonball-DX-Diorama-Figure-SS-Gohan-SCultures-HQ-DX-/261216438480?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3cd1b688d0I like it looking long like this, but I did definitely overdo it. It's surprising how much this looks like my sculpt considering I didn't have it printed on my reference sheets of paper.   I don't think I can turn back now without starting all over, so I think I'll just continue on sanding and sculpting. I'm going to remove those two bottom strands behind his right ear though. I did those wrong, forgetting he had such short hair on the back of his head. Is the problem that his forehead isn't large enough? Maybe I need to sand the hair off it some and that will fix problems with the hair looking too long?! I thought about resculpting the face since my all time favorite DBZ scene is Gohan crying after his transformation (in Japanese of course). I don't know if I want to do that though. I do love SS2 Gohan as a character though.  I do like that he looks kind of like this though. I still have to drill his head so his head isn't looking down. I never did that. The head fits poorly on the neck currently.  |

I don't know if I can even DO this without breaking things, but I'm going to try.  |

Awesome. They're sharp and spiky now! Don't drop him. Definitely raise his forehead some....looks like you already did? Are you going to give his clothes the BD effect? Also, his front bang should be more droopy. No?
Lastly, you MUST give him tears....what a cool feature that would be. If you don't, I'll do it to mine lol

I received some more figures in the mail so I got to work cutting them up, drilling, articulating, and sanding things. I'm barely going to have to do anything for some of these. Roshi will be a bit of work but Oolong in particular I'm going to spend maybe fifteen more minutes on haha. Not everything I do needs to be a complete repaint.

You know... I used to say I didn't want to make DB figures because it's too much work, but... I really get a lot of pleasure out of making these characters since I like DB so much more than DBZ.  I may end up making another Jackie Chun, one that is a little shorter and hunched over to match my Roshi. If I do, is there anybody interested in buying my current one? |

Bran I wanted to ask if u have ever used this can rubber stuff before? I had an idea about using a tie string and dipping it in this stuff over and over until I got the thickness I need to make it look like a tail? I'm pretty sure if u use a tie string or something close to that then u would be able to pose the tail in any way u wanted. I tried using my hot glue gun to do this and ended up wasting a lot of glue and making a mess. So I wonder if this would work what do u think?  |
