Hmm -- what brought this about? ;)


I would maybe use one of the BBI heads - a lot of those are "old-guy" looking, especially the WWII ones. With a little bit of gray paint and a wash or two to bring out/create the wrinkles, it might work. Might have to sculpt the turkey neck, but maybe not.

Damn, now you've got me wanting to do it, too. :D

Maybe one of the prequel trilogy senator Palpatine heads?

One of these, maybe?

If anyone needs any Senator/Chancellor Palpatine heads, let me know, I have a ton of them that I can pop off of my fodder figures :)

Not TOO terribly bad. Well other than the mad MS Paint skills I used to make it.


Opinions?

I think if you're going for the George Hall look, the Palpy head fits the bill just fine. Very cool idea. -- Just remember to give him the bushy "old man" eyebrows to complete the look :P

Doesn't KOTCS make some of the young Indy continuity irrelevant?
