All quiffed up

Modeling Subjects Figures and Misc.

Hi guys, i thought i would have a go at changing some Hornet heads just for some individuality. So i have given some bald heads some hair sculpted with Green stuff two part modelling putty. I have gone for a messy quiff style haircut short back and sides with a lot on top as this was a common hairstyle in the forties right up to the fifties.

Laid on the putty first with the sides and top being covered to a desired look Then i sculpted the hair with a sharp knife.

Then when dry i primed the heads with automotive primer

Just put a Gretsch in front of that and BAM!!! you got Brian Setzer. You have 2 more so I guess you can go ahead and model the Stray Cats. Nice hair doo!

All painted up tonight. Done in acryliks and finnished in oils hence why they are still a bit shiney.
