This is my first custom, so I will depend heavily on input. I was looking through my old transformers and found override and thought that it looked like a crazy vehicle from Batman. The red and black reminded me of Quinn and so I decide on Harley quinn. My first question the customizing community is: Do I sculpt a robotic like Harley Quinn face or buy a salvage figure for the Head?

What should I use to sculpt the face?

From what Ive seen, you should probably use Sculpy. It's an artificial clay, but it bakes hard, and keeps detail. For best results, sculpt basic details on soft Sculpy, then bake halfway, then when it's half baked sculpt remaining details, then bake completely

I have heard that Aves Apoxie Sculpt or Aves Fixit Sculpt to do it.

Those work well, too, but they can be VERY messy.

Just a quick Update. I have removed the stupid rubber exhaust ports and are debating whether or not to redo them. I have removed the arms and are using the 07 cliffjumper arms with the roofs removed and they are waiting to be filled. Soon to be sculpting the face and might to L.E.D. headlights :-?
