So much progress in just a few days! Very Happy

The print looks great and I am very excited that you are going the Evey/V direction. I definitely need an Evey in my collection. Smile

That's looking good! Just be aware the Sideshow figure is a little on the larger side, in that it is a bit bigger than the Hot Toys one. It doesn't affect your custom figure, but just something to bear in mind for if you were going to be casting the head later to sell.  : )

What advice do you need about the hair? For materials I usually go with tibetan lamb's hair, it is great for the scale. You can purchase it on Etsy or ebay, and there are also some craft supply shops online that sell it.  I just glue directly to the scalp, but the scalp probably needs to be prepped a bit first (sanded? painted?).... and you need to find a suitable glue that will stick to resin.

Here's a tutorial for adding lamb's hair to a bald doll head:

Yes it's in fact a very larger size compared to the ones I printed before for HT bodies. And still smaller than the huge one they made (Sideshow)...
I don't know what they were thinking when they produced it. Their Anakin seems short like he was 165 cm instead of 184 tall

Yeah, I think Sideshow was making theirs in a totally different scale, it seems. Laughing
