Description
Here's something fun. Sideshow's upcoming Willow statue from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I was only hired to do the head, but it was a great deal of fun. I really like the character, and Alyson Hannigan has a great expressive face.here's Sideshow's painted preview. Great paintwork! [link]
This is in 1/5 scale, sculpted in wax. I hope you enjoy it! I'll post an update with more shots after she's fully revealed.

That's awesome ! It just misses some pupils. Or maybe she's using some power she has in Buffy...

It really looks like her, even her pointy little hairline haha. The painted version looks really nice, I'd buy it if I could afford!

This particular sculpt was for a statue produced by Sideshow Collectibles that will come out later in the year.
I sell castings of my Firefly headsculpts, but otherwise most of my work is done for Sideshow.
Thanks for asking!

...she looks kinda creepy with no eyes
But other than that, totally awesome!

Yeah, I wish I was allowed to sculpt the eyes into these, but the painters don't like that.
Thanks!

why pay you to do a body when you could be doing another head ...sideshow knows where its at. awesome work Trev!
π: 0 β©: 1
Haha! I think that's precisely how they feel. I tend to be SLOW with full figures. We only do about 3 full statues a year because of it...but I'm so happy they let me do a couple! disembodied heads are fun,though!
Glad you like Willow! Thanks!

man your full body sculpts rock no doubt! bodies are relatively easy, until one packs in every detail conceivable and then puts details on top of that.
thanks for the reply solo!

Nailed it, the eyes and smile capture Willows personality on the show.

Thanks so much!
This was sculpted in TMS wax, which is sold by Ralph Cordero. I have a link in one of my journal entries to his email if you want to order some.

Hi Trev' I've never used wax before,but have often been tempted to try. Would TMS be suitable for a first try? and what does tms stand for? I would appreciate anything you can tell me about the differences in working wax opposed to polymer clay and yes please to the link to your supplier.Many thanks Lionel.

It looks EXACTLY like her. For some reason, this unpainted piece looks far more like her than the painted piece!

Thank you so much! I'm glad you like her...she was a lot of fun to sculpt.

She's absolutely stunning. 100% accurate, you are simply the best.

My Gods you are good at this. It's amazing how well you capture personalities of seemingly complicated faces.
