Not bad so far. What material did you use? Those horns and teeth might be fragile.

You should email some pics to Furman, he'll either love it to bits, or sue you.

Right on! I'm always glad to see another Death's Head fan 'round these parts! I did one myself a while back with the Colossus from that half-scale Marvel Legends line. I look forward to seeing updates.

cheers guys. I used milliput for the body work..mainly because it's hard to get Apoxie sculpt locally.
His horns and tusks probably wouldn't survive if I dropped him or let my nephew play with him..although they are pretty hard..but since he'll just be sat in my TF display case he should be fine!
Gotta love Death's Head..would love to see him come back in a big way!

IF you want the horns and tusks to be durable, and survive an accidental dropping, or your nephw gettin ghis hands on it, you might want to make them out of clear acrylic rods, then drill some holes for them and insert them into place and glue them securely.

Beautiful work! What did you use to get the chrome parts looking so nice?
He might benefit from some dry brushing to 'weather' the bright colours a bit.

You may be right..he needs a bit of fine tuning to get him looking just right.
The chrome is just Citadel's 'Chainmail' acrylic...was pretty pleased it turned out so good without having to fiddle with it!
