I finally found good Wrath Of Khan photos of Spock. Definitely trim the hair on the sides so his bangs are more rounded as you can see. And notice how very faint the blue eyeshadow is and how bold his eyebrows are. I also noticed the sideburns curl towards the front ever so slightly. Otherwise the head is fantastic.

Also reattach the shoulder strap on the back to make it about 2" front the shoulder seam like in the pic. That will definitely look superb!!!

Here's the pic: Dave

I think it looks pretty cool. I'd probably crap my pants if I woke up late and forgot he was there though! :lol

I'd fill my pants with poo if I was going to a late night pee, and saw this in my house.

I really hate posting pics of my 1:1s. This thing looks so much better in person. I hate this pic.

You've defnitely got the right attitude. Accepting critique with grace is the road to improvement.

I would say the worst thing anyone could say about something, though, would be nothing at all. The fact that you're getting comments says you've got something here and it's worth tweaking.

I absolutely agree.......this display is a few very short steps from being one of the very best WOK Spock 1:1's that I've ever seen. I'm so blown away by the sculpt!!!!

It's also the one Trek display I have wanted since seeing the flick all those years ago. I'm very jealous!!!

The hairline looks a touch off but it's because I didn't comb it properly before snapping the pic.

Wow, what a nice progress!
Have you considered to give Nimoy a more yellowish complexion?
I am really interested to see more...

Wow much, much better with the eye shadow. Is there a way of defining the crags in his face>

Those changes have really made it pop. As for definition, could you apply a loose bronzing powder over the face, working it into the crags and wrinkles then gently powder over with a slightly olive toned powder, highlighting the cheeks and forehead, avoiding the wrinkles as much as possible?

Wow, appreciate the advice, I can try that.

As for the hue, I know in TOS, Spock's complexion def. had a yellowish, green hue, but I didn't see it much in the films. I want to double check and make sure they did it in the movies before I add those highlights.
