Painted Albert!
This one has been on the cards for a little while... Daniel Cockersell who sculpted the original helmet gave up his entire Saturday to give 'Albert' the paint job he's been begging for! It's unbelievable to see it in the flesh, my partner and her dad came with me for the unveiling and they were beside themselves at the detail Dan can achieve. We are currently working on a comprehensive tutorial on how to paint these guys professionally... my first post was removed... love to hear your comments that were lost...

That just has to be modeled on Aussie race car driver the late Peter Brock. The resemblance is quite uncanny.

Cheers for the Comments... Dan is a fine artist / sculpture for Weta Workshop, Forge World and Games Workshop... he's says he's used to working at a smaller scale so 1/10th is easier!!!!

Flat out AMAZING. It is entirely hard to believe this is 1/10 scale. I would almost suspect the great details in a 12' GIJOE figure, but I know this head is a little smaller than this one and I haven't seen a GIJOE figure with half of the great details this one sports. I echo everyone here and say this has to be one of the best Heads on the club. Now to pick, get a sheet of sandpaper to that helmet to get that fresh fiberglass look to match the perfect face.
