after seeing the amazing custom hair piece buy "dirk72" I thought I'd have a crack seeing as I had the materials on hand.

not painted yet and its only a first draft but has some potential.

This is pretty good!

Great job, I think out looks an awful lot like a regular LEGO hairpiece, just not shiny.

Nice custom. Although I think it'll suit better on a headpiece without a beard.

But indeed it looks rather professional. Be sure to post some pictures of the sides and back too once it's painted

Nice! I requested for BF to make one of these on their forum, but I am still considering making one out of Sculpey.

This looks great.

here's some more pics of the first two attempts.

needs a lot of refining before I'll be happy to add it to my collection as I'm a bit of a purist but trying to get over that hang up.

the part I find hardest is just how much detail to add, too much detail makes it look non LEGO but not enough looks silly trying to find a good medium.

let me know what you think and apart from being smoother/glossy what I need to add/change.

cheers

Wow those hairpieces look amazing

I also love your ship and the building in the background, do you have more pictures of the ship and the buildings?

These hairy pieces look really good to me! It adds so much realism to the minifigs, I wish LEGO produced them. But who knows what the new Pirates of the Caribbean theme brings?

I also move this to the Minifig Customization Workshop, as it fits better there.

Nice job with these customs. I really like the one with two curls on each side, It fits in really nicely. The other one seems a bit thin, but still nice IMO.

Great job

Great job on those custom hairpieces TazManiac! Very clean sculpey-molding, they really look professionally-done. I really hope TLG will make these types of hairpieces, I'm pretty sure our Pirates fans will be happy to have them.

cheers for all the positive feed back, as thoughs photos don't do them justice .

check them out at Classic-Pirates moc's

Very good. As KDM said the actual sculpting of the wig is brilliant and a good finish colour. I have been looking forward to a wig for years so hopefully TLC will make one.

Very nice. The color is very good, and it looks realistic. I also wish that Lego would make a hairpiece like this.

Great hairpiece, it is realistic and I too like the colour used.

Well done.

Good , but reminds me of Gorge Washington.
