Awesome, awesome job!
Thanks Mog. Credit the Hasbro sculptors for the facial expression on this head. The furrowed eyebrows and the smirk were all in the original sculpt, though the lips were given unpainted and the eyes a bit wide as factory painted. But it was flesh color molded, ideal for fixing eyes, eyebrows, and lips because you can use an exact knife as an eraser of sorts, to scrape off overpaint.
The expressive face threw me off at first, then I loved it after a few days, then I got worried I may have become eyeblind to something that was obviously off. In the end, I'm sticking with it over the WM Retro head for many reasons, unless comments sway me.
BTW I think the WM Retro head also has a bit of a sculpted smirk (noticed when repainting to a lighter pink), but the eyebrow locations (sculpted on) don't give the same overall attitude of this head. Is also too pale comparatively.
