Movie Style Mirage Head

Got a great pic of G1 Op or BW Megs? Whether it's 2-D or 3-D it's welcome as is any other form of art outside the custom figure world.

Movie Style Mirage Head

Postby Sigma Vortex » Tue Sep 25, 2007 11:26 pm

Ok...I got this idea from really looking at Mirage's head. It looks like an Egyptian Headdress, does it not? So, I took a few minutes and whipped this up.

The symbol on his left eye is called the Eye of Bast, which is essentially the left eye of Ra. I figure his face would be golden to match the sarcophagus that he was modeled after. His face would essentially be expressionless. He is a spy, so any expression would give away his objectives right?

And the Egyptians were known to be quite vain...which in a nut shell describes Mirage.

Interesting, though I wouldn't go so blatently Egyptian. A bit more subtlty might work better. Good work though.

Looks like a she (not necessarily abad thing), maybe time for some time in the remodelling shop?

Nice work. I like how you've picked up on the egyptian idea.
Doesn't really speak to me of Movie style though. Not enough spikes, fangs and messy shards of metal ;)

Crumple the Egyptian face a bit, and you'll have it. :P
