Well here is a little head that I knocked out today, I had a request for a wild willy scale head, well I know I can’t improve on the original willy head, so how do I keep the flavor of the classic we all know and love???

I took a casting of a willy head, then cut away everything except the eyes and nose, then I built a face around it, I tried to keep the original round nose and heavy brow of willy, and also the LARGE signature eyes, I went with the old feaux hawk and a expression similar to that of the new Wendy 2, I think this will look quite good when painted, and it fits on the body really well. It looks a bit odd in the dark grey sculpting wax. I will post more pics as this progresses

Thanks
Matt......................due to so many requests, now available for sale...................check my traderoom:)

He reminds me a bit of Billy Idol. Especially his lips are already curled like Billy's. The only thing now that is needed to complete his moves is the fist pumping. 'Rebell yell'!!!!

Glad you haven't moved on from WW's, I had thought about sending you a message a couple of months ago with regards creating a Willy without a helmet. You must have super telepathic powers. Hope you can sell some unpainted as my finances unfortunately can't stretch to your latest Wendy's. Keep up the good work.

I heard from Wendy that she'd personally requested this, cus she's fed up of speaking to her boyfriend Willy through a crash hemet!

I agree, the Billy Idol references are spot on, there is, if anything a definite allusion to a proper '80s MTV punk rocker face if I have ever seen one. Nice work
