I've been working on this guy for awhile and finally got to the point where I'm comfortable and feel it looks enough like Indiana Jones that the figure doesn't annoy me anymore. The figure actually looks more like Ford in person but these I think capture him pretty nicely.

Sideshow really gave a nice sculpt in there and was better than the Hot Toys one, it ended up just having a horrible paint job.

Amazing paint job. It's hard for me to wrap my head around the fact that that's the SSC head. Leaps and bounds better.

Thanks buddy I appreciate that. To be honest I had repainted the head almost immediately out of the box and then kept tweaking it over the last few years. The other day I just made one or two paint detailing changes around the mouth, the beard, and the eyes and it really finally looked finished to me. I think the Hot Toys one has a better body that represents Ford's physique better-so at some point I may get one of those and then just use the Sideshow head and clothing on the Hot Toys body.

His shirt isn't sweaty enough... Joking! That, sir, looks incredible! Your paint jobs on 1/18th scale figures rocks, but on this 1/6th scale... Whew! You've got the mad skills, bro!
