Remembering that Destro is actually suppose to be wearing a helmet, I upsized the 25th head so it's the same size as the V1 helmet
To critique myself, the head should be sitting a touch further back

Here's a Snow Serpent helmet (whoever asked for this, please contact me), and a Headhunter Stormtrooper helmet that a trooper can actually wear.

Cool, but are you going to make it the helmet removable?

The Destro head? Sure it could be. I personally don't have a need for that right now, but it's big enough.

While technically correct, that helmet looks comically large. Maybe if it were removable, but as is I just can't get behind it.

EDIT: I just figured it out. It's not the size, it's the eyes. Those eyes make it look kind of weird.

I could make the eyes smaller. But the head is the same size as the V1- which is what I loved about the character.

I'm with Lev -- the eyes are what makes it look too big.

But I think you'd have a real winner if you took care of those.

Gonna have a swappable "unmasked" James McCullen?

Yeah, those eyes really did look awful at first. Again, thanks for the feedback.

Hehe, he looks funny to me. Like those sports games on consoles when you use the code to get the head real big. It's almost going on the watermelon head days of the old figures, hehe. It's a great job as far as enlarging, it just looks funny on that body.

Looks good John, I think it turned out rather well. Nice upsize on that HHST too, you can see alot of hidden detail in it.
