Tonner doll co. released its 17 inch Capt. Jack Sparrow figure recently. And although it is a wonderful recreation of Jack Sparrow, I felt it needed to be more authentic in terms of hairstyling and resemblance to Johnny Depp. So I removed all factory facial paint and completely repainted the doll to more closely resemble Johnny Depp as Capt. Jack. Also, the original hair started out just being plain with a little bit of wave and braids to it. So, I reworked it and created the dreadlocks just like the real character's. Also, I handpainted Jack's tattoo as seen in the movie, as well as the pattern on his bandana. Finally, the hair ornaments were repositioned to look more accurate.

Repaint is a new form of pop art, wherein the doll's face is treated like a three dimensional canvas, with the added challenge of painting within a very small area . Since dolls are basically miniature pieces, brush strokes and shading have to be very controlled and precise.

-- acrylic paint and ultra fine brushes

Holy Frijoles! At first I thought that head was a picture pasted on! litterally! I was about to say: "How'd you get such a good picture to photoshop?"

But goodness gracious that's amazing! Photo-quality!

You're right - The Tonner model was very good, but not quite right. Yours, as usual, is spot on and looks much more like Johnny Depp! Wonderful work!

You should draw on the bandana pattern--I bet it would be really easy and quick to do.

Great job, as always! :)
