More pics to follow shortly but im quite excited about this... Again, i wasnt totally happy about my new head shape.. It was a little wide and it didnt sit right. Yes i know im being fussy but kermit was my first build and im addicted to getting as accurate replice as i can get... So i scrapped the one above and started over... Another few tweeks later and i think i finally have one i am happy with :smile:
